http://www.artdaily.com reports that a rediscovered work by French painter Georges de la Tour, Saint James the Great, sold for $3,223,000.
Part of a group of thirteen canvases, representing the Blessing Christ and the Twelve Apostles, known as the Albi series, which have been rediscovered over the past decades, the work had been estimated to sell for $1.5/2 million.
(The Da Vince Code Wiki Community claims the de la Tour is noted for having depicted Mary Magdalene as pregnant, and figures prominently in the mysterious legends surrounding Rennes-le-Château.)
