Most Expensive Paintings of the World 1. Nov 5th 1948 by Jackson Pollock Jackson Pollock’s 1948 painting entitled Nov 5th 1948 was arguably his greatest masterwork, the most vivid expression of the painter’s unique style. When it was sold by David Geffen in 2006, it became the world’s most expensive painting in history at a price-adjusted $149.70 million dollars. 2.
