L’homme Au Doigt

L’homme au doigt or The Pointing Man, created in 1947, is the most expensive sculpture to have ever been sold at an auction. It took over from The Walking Man as the most expensive sculpture in the world at a 2015 auction when it sold for over $141.3 million.

The Pointing Man is cast in bronze and is considered as Giacometti’s most evocative sculpture. It was created in six casts with only the auctioned piece being hand-painted by Giacometti.
