2022 was a good year for the art market. Although it didn’t set a record—sales were slightly lower than in 2021—it did show great resilience, with sales in the millions.

 

ANSWER

"Shot Sage Blue Marilyn" by Andy Warhol, which sold for US$195 million at a Christie’s auction in May 2022. 

It is the 20th-century work that has fetched the highest price to date. Meanwhile, *Huerta con cipreses* sold for US$117 million, *Maternidad II* for US$106 million, and *La madera de abedul* for US$105 million.
