Breaking News, one of Leonardo Da Vinci's paintings named ''Salvatore Mundi'' has been bought for 400 Million Dollars

4 times the amount that was predicted it would be worth :clap1:

who bought the painting hasn't revealed him/herself


the painting also remains highly controversial, some people doubt the credibility at being really painted by Da Vinci himself

Salvatore Mundi is a portrait of Jesus, and was made around the year 1500, the painting is called the male mona lisa

Maybe it has a secret code embedded within it dating back to the Knights Templars and the location of the secret bloodline of Christ?

there were two nice portraits in my aution last night, one was deffo 18th century, looked like rasputin and one was so dirty you could barely see it . Hoping there were no "picture guys" in I marked down 120 thinking someone w0ould take a punt up till 100 and bail.

so it went for 3700

:oh:

and probably was a bargain too

A painting of jesus, probably bought by Arab kings, surely they’re the only ones who could afford to pay that for a painting?
