One of four compositions Edvard Munch created off the iconic "Scream" imagery is going up for auction at Sotheby's in May, and experts say it could fetch upwards of $80 million. Icons are pretty impossible to put a price on, so it may go up or down from there, but the Sotheby's VP of Impressionism & Modern art calls it "one of the most important works in private hands."
All proceeds will be put toward building a new museum, art center and hotel on the farmland of the current owner.
