 "Modigliani's Reclining Nude breaks record, fetches $170m in bidding battle!")
Amedeo Modigliani’s 'Nu Couché' /AP Photo New Delhi: Amedeo Modigliani's 1919 painting called Reclining Nude has managed to be a word record setter at an auction in New York.
The painting fetched $170m (£113m). The painting was sold at Christie’s after a bidding battle, according to a report by The Guardian.
It was the second highest price ever achieved at auction for a work of art.
Reportedly, the painting was bought by a Chinese taxi driver turned billionaire art collector.
Reclining Nude is considered to be one of the best known works of Modigliani. The painting also created a ruckus when it was first exhibited in Paris.
