"For the Love of God"


British artist Damien Hirst's human skull encrusted with 8,601 diamonds.

The artwork named “For the Love of God” was unveiled four years ago at London’s White Cube gallery and later sold to an anonymous investment group.


The skull fetched $100 million, but it was a private transaction and the fact that Hirst was part of the group of investors who bought it raised questions about its true value.


Encased in a layer of platinum and covered with diamonds, the skull has been exhibited around the world.
