Most expensive painting of a moonscape

According to Official Guinness Records,

The most expensive moonscape painting sold was created by US astronaut Alan Bean, lunar module pilot on Apollo 12 (14-24 November 1969) and commander of Skylab 2 (29 July to 25 September 1973). It depicts the fictional scenario of Bean, who describes himself as an astronaut-explorer-artist, chasing a football on the Moon, thrown by Apollo 12 commander Pete Conrad. The painting, titled ‘If we could do it all over again – are you ready for some football?’, was sold to an unnamed buyer in 2004 for $182,369.60 (£98,415.75).
