Ask a roomful of art historians and critics “who is the best artist ever?”, and you’ll get dozens of different answers. Why? Because there is no single standard by which to measure who is the greatest painter or sculptor: fine art is too subjective.
They’ll tell you too that the most expensive art is not necessarily the best.
Auction prices at Sothebys or Christie’s provide some indication of the most valuable artworks or styles of art, but most of the finest paintings by the world’s best artists hang in museums or public galleries, and are not for sale at any price.
