A Pablo Picasso painting has been bought by a hedge fund manager for a record $155m – making it the most expensive of the Spanish genius artist’s works.<\/h1>\n

Steve A Cohen bought the oil painting of Picasso’s mistress Marie-Therese Walter, titled Le Reve, from casino mogul Steve Wynn, The New York Post reported.<\/p>\n

Steve A Cohen and Steve Wynn, who are both billionaires and well-known art collectors, have a history with this particular Pablo Picasso painting.<\/p>\n

In 2006, Mr Wynn put his elbow through the canvas while showing it to several friends, reportedly a day after agreeing to sell it to Mr Cohen for $139 million.<\/p>\n

The portrait is said to have been completed in one afternoon in 1932 when Pablo Picasso was 50 years old.<\/p>\n
