Van Gogh vs. Picasso

The most amazing fight in bidding history, took place this week at
Christie's New York. Van Goghs L'Arlésienne, Madame Ginoux was sold for
$40,3 Million, whereas Picassos Le Repos only sold for $34,7 Million.





The estimated price for Le Repos was only $9,5 Million and during the
auction it increased up to nearly $35 Million.





So which picture do you think is of higher value?

Is the value of the paintings related to who the artist was?
