When we talk about the richest people in the world, one name stands out – Roman Abramovich. He’s not just one of the richest, but also one of the most generous lovers. We’re not sure if his generosity has found its way to the masses yet, but there’s plenty of proof that his long-standing girlfriend has vastly benefited by it.
Where To Begin?
Let’s start with the $14 million he blew on a bronze sculpture by Swiss sculptor Alberto Giacometti. This creation, called “Femme de Venise”, is a thing of beauty to look at and a definite joy to own. Though of course, most people would be content to look upon this fabulous piece of art in a museum or a black-tie exhibition.
Not so for Roman Abramovich. He had to buy it. If that weren’t enough, he simply had to gift it to his girlfriend, who, we hope, is a connoisseur of fine art.
Not to Forget $60 Million Worth Of Art
This flamboyant billionaire is also known to have spent a mind-boggling $60 million buying extremely expensive pieces of art for his girlfriend. The truly unbelievable (but very true) part of this story is that he spent the entire $60 million on various art auctions at Sotheby’s and Christie’s in just one month! Now, we wonder, was it her birthday month when the big bucks were spent?
He Didn’t Stop There
He went on, our indefatigable billionaire lover, to buy her a fabulous villa in Colorado, and graced it with two paintings by Lucian Freud and Francis Bacon. Want to know how much the house and the paintings cost? An eye-popping $120 million!
