At the beginning of November, Picasso’s painting “Femme á la montre” was auctioned for 130 million euros. A huge sum. The new owner could have used this money to build or renovate a school. The costs for such construction projects now often hover in similar levels. For example in Fürth: The new construction and renovation of the Helene-Lange-Gymnasium is currently estimated at around 157 million euros, as the city announced. They talk about it as a “project of the century”.
