New record has been set for the most expensive painting ever sold at an auction 1. First, the work. It`s a painting of Jesus Christ named "Savior of the World". Second, the artist, it`s attributed to Leonard Da Vinci. Third, the price. It sold this week for more than $450 million.


拍卖会上拍出的最昂贵的画作,创下了新的纪录。首先,这幅作品。这是一幅耶稣基督的画作,名叫《世界的救主》。第二,艺术家。这是有伦纳德·达芬奇创造的。第三,价格。这幅画作本周拍卖的价格为4.5亿美元。


No artwork ever exchanged hands for that amount of money.


从未有一件艺术作品能拍卖如此高的价钱。


But that brings up a tiny little fifth point. Art historians say it`s not in great shape. It has considerable damage, and some say they`re not even certain it was painted by Da Vinci.


但是可能还会哟其他的顾虑。艺术历史学家表示,这幅画作的形状并不好。有相当大的破坏,并且他们表示并不能确定是达芬奇所画。


They just Leonar-don`t know for sure. They say some parts of the painting are uncon-vincing. But at the end of the Degas, no matter how much you canvas a piece before bidding goodbye to your Monet, Chagall you`re left with, there`s a thin Vermeer of the past, a Klimt in the history, a piece of Rembrandt to hang on your Warhol.


他们只是不确定。他们表示局部画作并不具有说服力。但是在埃德加·德加画作的结尾,在你在向莫奈告别之前,你都在画布上画了一幅画,夏加尔为我们留下的画作,还有瘦瘦的维梅尔,历史上的克里姆特,还有悬挂的沃霍尔的画作。
