Crypto boss buys a banana for £5m

Seriously?: The sale was the first time that “Comedian” (above) had appeared at auction, after first making a splash at Miami’s Art Basel fair in 2019 before travelling the world. The banana is one of an edition of three.

Has he gone bananas? A banana, arranged by the artist Maurizio Cattelan, has sold for a huge sum. Some think the art world has gone crazy.
