Canadian rapper Drake\u2019s acquisition of Tupac Shakur\u2019s custom ring makes it the most valuable <\/strong> hip-hop artifact ever sold. <\/strong>The custom-designed gold, ruby, and diamond ring was acquired last week at a Sotheby\u2019s auction<\/a> for a little over USD 1 mn. The ring, designed by Shakur himself, was worn by the late rapper during his last public appearance before his murder in 1996. Sotheby\u2019s says that Shakur designed the ring during \u201ca period of monumental transition in his life,\u201d after leaving prison, where he was incarcerated on [redacted] abuse charges.<\/p>\n

The ring, which was estimated to sell at USD 200-300k <\/strong>, contains large rubies and diamonds set in a miniature gold crown, which Shakur\u2019s grandmother explains is fashioned after the crowns of medieval European kings \u201cin an act of self-coronation.\u201d Selling at over triple its presale estimate price, the buyer\u2019s identity wasn\u2019t revealed until Drake showed the ring off in an \u2014 in our opinion, underwhelming \u2014 Instagram story<\/a> dedicated to Travis Scott\u2019s new album.<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t the first (and probably not the last) lavish Drake purchase. <\/strong>The rapper is known for being a little extravagant with his purchases, which include a USD 185 mn Boeing 767 (which seats 269 passengers), 49 pieces of singer Pharrel Williams\u2019 old jewelry<\/a> totaling USD 2.6 mn, and a diamond necklace made out of 42 engagement rings<\/a> the rapper previously bought, one for each time he thought about proposing to a woman. The necklace \u2014 which he calls \u201cPrevious Engagements\u201d \u2014 totals 351.38 carats worth of diamonds mounted on 18k white gold, estimated at the price of USD 12.5 mn<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The woman in the (infrared) painting: <\/strong> The Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium (RMFAB) uncovered the portrait of a woman under Ren\u00e9 Magritte\u2019s The Fifth Season, the Guardian<\/a> reported. The hidden painting is said to feature Georgette, Magritte\u2019s late wife, according to Catherine Defeyt, senior researcher at RMFAB, and RMFAB senior curator Francisca Vandepitte, who made the discovery beneath the 1943 painting, the article notes. The woman\u2019s hair, lips, and face shape are consistent with other portraits the surrealist artist painted of his wife. <\/p>\n

The hidden image was discovered with infrared reflectography <\/strong>\u2014 or infrared radiation<\/a> \u2014 which is commonly used by art experts. The technology helps reveal layers of paint to better understand artists\u2019 methods and construction process. Much like the stratigraphy conducted by geologists as they study layers of earth, art curators and conservators also study layers of paint to peer into the history and evolution of a painting. <\/p>\n

Is it in line with Magritte\u2019s artistic philosophy \u2014 or a case of recycling? <\/strong>The artist is famously quoted as saying<\/a>: \u201cEverything we see hides another thing, we always want to see what is hidden by what we see.\u201d This is also consistent with this surrealist style which manifests itself most famously in a painting depicting a pipe with the inscription \u201cThis is not a pipe,\u201d which he aptly called \u2018The treachery of Images\u2019 to question both the authority of images and the spoken word. While the discovery is exciting, one speculation suggests it is better explained by financial motivations, the Guardian adds. Magritte may have covered up a painting on more than one occasion simply to save the cost of a new canvas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
