A naked portrait of Sinead O'Connor was sold for 15,000 euros at an auction in Dublin. The portrait of O'Connor was originally destined to hang in a Dublin nightclub but was bought by the singer and then put up for sale.
The picture, called Strange Days, shows her as a reclining nude on a purple sheet, wearing only a necklace and stockings, with her face reflected in a mirror. The painting's creator is the well-known Irish artist Jim Fitzpatrick.
