who owns palazzo di amore in beverly hills
Palazzo di Amore Palazzo di Amore is a house in Los Angeles, California. In November 2014, it was cited as being the most expensive residential complex in the United States, listed at $195 million,[1] with 53,000 square feet of living space. The compound is being sold by Jeff Greene, a real estate billionaire who purchased the property for around $35 million and spent the next several years renovating it with the help of developer Mohamed Hadid, architect Bob Ray Offenhauser, and designer Alberto Pinto. The property was relisted for sale in 2017 with an asking price of $129 million.[2]
Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I When Altmann was asked what she wanted to do with the paintings, she stated "I would not want any private person to buy these paintings, ... It is very meaningful to me that they are seen by anybody who wants to see them, because that would have been the wish of my aunt."[85] In June 2006 the Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I was sold to Ronald Lauder for $135 million, at the time a record price for a painting. Eileen Kinsella, the editor of ARTnews, considered the high price was due to several factors, particularly the painting's provenance, the increasing demand for Austrian Expressionism, rising prices in the art world and "Lauder's passion for and pursuit of this particular work".[86] Lauder placed the work in the Neue Galerie, the New York-based gallery he co-founded. The painting has been on display at the location since.[43][87][88]
