A painting by the late US artist Jean-Michel Basquiat, which is owned by U2, is set to go under the hammer later.
Untitled (Pecho/Oreja) is expected to fetch £6million at Sotherby's in London.
The painting was initially spotted by the band's bassist Adam Clayton in 1989 and has hung at U2's studios in Ireland ever since.
Basquiat was originally a graffiti artist in New York and the record for his work currently stands at £7.4million.
