An AI-generated print sold for $432,500 at Christie’s auction house in New York on Thursday, over 40 times more than it was expected to fetch.

The print is called Edmond de Belamy and its washed-out features—artifacts of the algorithm used to generate it—make it look a bit like the Spanish fresco depicting Jesus Christ that was disfigured so badly in a botched repair job that it became a meme. The print is one of a series of 11, all AI-generated and depicting the members of the fictional Belamy family, and is signed with the mathematical formula describing the algorithm that was used to generate it.
