Can't be 87.9mil because it is way too specific, obvious trap.

Wouldn't be the lowest one as you clearly want to show how overpriced it is.

So that leaves us with 2,3,5 or 6.

I call 250million, lock my answer sir.

I'd say 250M or more. I put in option #6, because even if the right answer is option 5, I might be right in another few years. XD

Lol. Strategy ftw. But in all seriousness, I've never truly liked classic fine art paintings - especially abstract. Which is why you'll notice the stuff I purchase or show belong to lowbrow art category - artists like Audrey Kawasaki, Mark Ryden, Amy Sol, and Sylvia Ji.

Damn.. you've revealed my trap.

Here's the fact of the matter:
Quote:
PAUL CÉZANNE
"The Card Players", 1892/93
*** million *** K
Private sale, 2011. Seller: George Embiricos. Buyer: Royal Family of Qatar.

This is the last version of this famous composition by Paul Cézanne still in private hands. The fabulous psychological intensity in the faces of the players make this painting a masterpiece of post-impressionist art.

Well, do you want to know the Price? lulz I'm Just Kidding
Well: This painting has been sold for $250 Million

You gotta be kidding me. Someone with that much money is just simply a douche for purchasing a painting worth that much instead of giving some of it to charity or something, lol. Or his local area.

Royal Family of Qatar. Pretty much the definition of self-important figure head douche bags with too much money.
