Churchill WWII painting up for auction
2021-02-04
[Victory Girls] What price can you put on history? Right now, it looks to be about $3.4 million, and could likely be higher.

The only painting that Winston Churchill created during World War II — he was just a little busy during that period of time — was of a landscape in Marrakech. Churchill painted it as a gift to President Franklin D. Roosevelt after the Casablanca Conference in 1943.

#1  Interesting. I wonder why some museum didn't pick buy it? Too pricey?
