$140 million painting

If money were no object you could bid on the painting No. 5, 1948 by Jackson Pollock the next time it comes up for auction. The painting sold for $140 million in 2006. The painting is 4 foot by 8 foot and is painted on a sheet of fiberboard. Yes, fiberboard. The painting is covered in generous amounts of brown and yellow paint forming a nest-like appearance.
