Qatar Uses Its Riches to Buy Art Treasures - NYTimes.com:
"The prices have been record breaking, and startling.
The $250 million paid for Cézanne’s “Card Players” in 2011 is the highest known price for a painting.
More than $70 million for Rothko’s “White Center” in 2007, a high-water mark for that artist.
More than $20 million later that year for a Damien Hirst pill cabinet, then a record for a living artist."
