And a five hundred other masterpiece but he nodded up when she becomes the most expensive piece of art episode of the notion a cool four hundred and fifty Million Dollars so for this incredible piece of hot. Home welcome to you im to thought she. Zimbabwe is confronting an uncertain future after the military in intervention the army remains in control of key buildings including the parliament and the state broadcaster president Robert Mugabe has been confined to his house as Security Forces patrolled the streets the opposition is calling for a Transitional Government but the militarys next move is not known. The army stresses this isnt a coup but with tanks and military vehicles blocking off parliament and government buildings in the capital harare it sure looks like one and the coup is something the rest of the African Union has said it will not accept. You know we in the African Union are against any violent government overthrow. Issued a statement saying the army should retreat and return to constitutional order. We support the legitimate zimbabwean government and in no case will we accept a forceful seizure of power for the fate of president Robert Mugabe and his wife grace is unclear but they appear to be in the custody of the military who say the couple are safe the armys intervention comes after months of power wrangling over who will succeed ninety three year old mugabe who has ruled the country since one thousand nine hundred eighty last week mugabe fired Vice President emerson one ghagra he was widely viewed as the hair apparent and backed by some of the countrys most powerful generals that sacking seemed to clear the path for grace mugabe to become the next in line now the military has stopped her ascent at least temporarily. And an Influential Group of war veterans one staunch mugabe supporters themselves is calling for him to step aside completely. That the robot governor for the better corps from his role as the president and first result appear. Frustration has been growing in zimbabwe it eased to be wealthy but thirty seven years of mugabes rule have left the economy in tatters and the question of who will take over to try and repair it has now been thrown wide open. And for more im joined now by our correspondent a privilege was fun here hes reporting for us from harare predict what is the latest situation there be are getting fresh reports the gris mugabe the wife of the president is holed up with him in the president ial palace. There is information we are getting or saluki. You know this is was no one. Is too there with out about fifty or what is ive been to the people that we have arrested. Information is that there was also going around that grace is now in the media so this is new information that is also coming out now that hes still in the country and with the president saw got its hard to. Get the right information thats. Just what is really happening and that this what is known about the intentions of the army and the army was a close ally of Robert Mugabe do they now want to replace him or do they want to stay in power for a while. It points to a replacement i think the most of the issues are standing around succession issues that have been happening and it will impact is and of being if you look at it. I think most of the things with fewer by how powerful that the fist lady had become because the fist lady was also demeaning. Me and i mean generals and even their former Liberation War fighters. With the group of fourteen the g. Four to a group that is also our ninety two here because what theyre saying is that. They fought for the Liberation War in the end now theyre now discredited seeing their role that their liberation will fade as a lead. And so i think thats why did i needed to step in and then also the i meet his ses they also have an interest in this state. To plead to talk to what they were saying is the criminal elements that were not sit around the president and we basically up a bit what about the opposition the movement for Democratic Change its leader monk morgan chang that i has just returned back into into the country and into how do. We have that years tend to have right and in the fist thing that you say you use in agreement with what i mean is done and hes committing the i me to say that what. Was good because in the sense that. Hes a long time prison. Privileges im less than he in how to thank you very much for that update. Less articulate at some other stories making news around the want lebanons former Prime Minister saad hariri has accepted an invitation to travel from saudi arabia to paris thats according to the French Foreign minister better routes had accused the saudis of detaining hariri following his shock resignation earlier this month. At least seven people have been killed by a suicide bomber at a political rally in the Afghan Capital of kabul that is according to the interior ministry is the latest in a wave of attacks to hit afghanistan that have killed and wounded thousands just this year alone german chancellor Angela Merkel says talks to forge a new government have exposed serious differences between parties but she remains optimistic about forming a Coalition Negotiations have entered a crucial phase with a deadline for a deal running out tonight heres what she said earlier today its get off on all. If i expect these negotiations to take several hours. And i dont know how long they will take. But i hope that the will is there for us to achieve something. Americans conservatives have been locked in difficult exploratory talks with the business friendly free democrats and the environmental greens now there is growing concern that the junior parties could walk away and trigger a snap election i asked rupert redivide if the parties were any closer together. No not really on the only thing these parties agree on is to dis agree and this is not very much for one must say after three weeks off for a limited area talks to form a government in the end what we do see is that as the deadline of tonight is coming closer that the tone is getting rougher and tougher especially in between the three smaller parties the junior parties sees you f. T. P. And the green party for instance the leader of the parliament of the greens in Parliament Today said that he cannot see that the other parties would be offering any compromise whatsoever and his counterpart of the Bavarian Party see as you said that the greens would still be clinging on to meet evil demands so this doesnt sound very reassuring to me then. That was a Political Correspondent but now would you pay four hundred and fifty Million Dollars for a painting well a painting by the red all sauce mostyn Leonardo Da Vinci well one anonymous buyer did its an astounding prize for a painting that was once thought to be by one of his students previously to change hands for just a few thousand dollars but at christies in new york it was a different story. Thoroughly ladies and gentlemen we move to dick cheney the subject of modern day the masterpiece fallen out of christ the savior previous in the collections of three kings of england savior of the world poor traits of jesus christ one of fewer than twenty paintings known to exist by their own a sons master ninety minute looking for ninety five in house christie said the presale estimates at one hundred Million Dollars but that was soon exceeded ninety five and i gave one third over it why not instead i have it one hundred ten Million Dollars give me one twenty the bidding via phone just getting going on ninety is bit you heard it you place your place with francoise in a fifth place that one hundred ninety for the leonardo at one hundred ninety million give me two hundred one ninety is bit two hundred million is bid at two hundred million two hundred million just how high could he go at two hundred eighty Million Dollars so were all down maybe not.

Out of service of what is selling here at christies four hundred Million Dollars is the bit the pin is. So. With an extra fifty Million Commission for christies the total price tag four hundred fifty Million Dollars the buyer has so far remained anonymous so we dont know if the public will ever get a chance to see the work again thanks for joining me now is robert and he is an auctioneer order and an art expert with a gun in bag and house here in but and welcome robert thats an incredible painting and it is by Leonardo Da Vinci but who possibly could afford to pay so much money for a piece of art i have a i have no idea who my divider off duty or not driven sheet and it was probably the gates bill gates spent in one nine hundred ninety s. Bill gates i would say so because he spent on the leicester codex nine hundred ninety four almost thirty two million and he is a prominent bio of very exclusive art and she has money to afford such a painting the spectacular the price is wonderful.
