Bought in 1973

From the New York-based Australian gallerist Max Hutchinson, he discovered that Blue Poles (painted in 1952) was available for sale from the original owner for $1.3 million ($11 million in today's money).

The painting was Jackson Pollock's near five-metre wide work Blue Poles and today its estimated value is about $350 million.14 Apr 2022
