An iconic portrait of Marilyn Monroe is going under the hammer in New York on Monday.
Andy Warhol's painting of the 1960s is valued at $200m, and is expected to be the most expensive 20th-century artwork ever to sell at auction.
Christie's auction house says the proceeds will be donated to a foundation that supports children's health and education programmes.
