Sale of Warhol's Jacko portrait not so hot: auctioneers

On Thursday, however, a new statement said only that the winner of the auction "paid over one million dollars for the unique work of art."
The buyer remained anonymous and "the final price paid remains undisclosed," the statement added.
The auction came less than two months after the pop king's death.
The portrait, measuring 30 by 26 inches (76.2 by 66 centimeters), was purchased for 278,500 dollars in May at the Sotheby's auction house.
The owner decided to sell after Jackson's sudden death created a wave of interest in memorabilia.
