ID: 3471130 PIG'S ARTWORK WORLD RECORD £20,000! (Pig Paints & Sells Art For A Living) ONSCREEN CREDIT - Farm Sanctuary SA A painting PIG dubbed Pigcasso has made history - after her latest piece of abstract art sold for a record-breaking £20,000. The masterpiece was snapped up on Monday (December 13) within hours of release by a German buyer, called Peter Esser, who forked out an astonishing £20,000 for the painting - smashing the record of £14,400 previously set by a chimp called Congo at a Bonham's auction in 2005. Pigcasso's painting, entitled Wild and Free, is a huge canvas featuring blue, green and white acrylic strokes, which took several weeks to complete. The porcine prodigy has created hundreds of paintings over the last five years after being saved from the slaughterhouse as a piglet by owner, Joanne Lefson. The pair live at Farm Sanctuary SA - a safe haven for rescued farm animals nestled in the Franschhoek Valley of South Africa. pig, painting, painting pig, world record, artwork, abstract, masterpiece, **Please contact licensing@ for media / licensing / broadcast usage** SUBMIT A VIDEO: Check out more videos like this one: World's Funniest Flight Attendant (Hilarious Viral Video) Teenager Can 'Delay' Her Voice (Funny Viral Video) Man Dressed As T-Rex Plays With 500LB Alligator Connect with Caters: Facebook: Website: Instagram: Company Information: Caters Clips is owned and operated by Caters News Agency Ltd, an international multimedia content provider.
