Sculpture sells for record £65m

A life-size bronze sculpture of a man by Alberto Giacometti has been sold at auction in London for a world record price of £65,001,250.



It took just eight minutes for bidders to reach the hammer price after L'Homme Qui Marche I opened at £12m at Sotheby's auction house. Sotheby's said it was the most expensive work ever sold at auction.
