Faena's answer stands in the garden: Damien Hirst's gold mammoth skeleton, bought in 2015 and never for sale.
The line we searched: British Airways nonstop from Heathrow, a 777 over the Atlantic, nine hours and fifty-five minutes in business, landing the Tuesday before the preview, then a taxi to Collins Avenue.
Eleven hours and fifty-seven minutes, door to lobby. The fare was the only visible line item; the preview isn't.
