On May 14, 2008, the “Triptych, 1976,” “a landmark of the 20th-century canon,” sold at Sotheby's contemporary art sale for $ 86.28 million, a record for the artist at auction. It was being sold by the Moeuix family, producers of Château Petrus wines.nytimes.com, Bacon Painting Auctioned for Record $86 Million This sale breaks the 2007 record for his work of $ 52.68 million.
