    It's impossible to say. It's been in the possession of the Art Institute of Chicago for over 90 years and will certainly never be sold. You can't put a "value" on a work like that, though it's probably insured for many millions.

    It was purchased back in the 1920's for $24,000, which translates to over $300,000 in today's dollars, but that figure is now meaningless. The painting is priceless because it could never be replaced if destroyed.

    Priceless.
