This undated photo provided by the Phillips Auction House shows Diego Rivera's "Baile en Tehuantepec." Phillips Auction House says that the painting that has sold privately for $15,7 million dollars sets a world record price for any work of Latin American art. The figure nearly duplicates the previous record of Latin American art set for Frida Kahlo's "Dos desnudos en el bosque," which sold for more than $8 million dollars at a Sotheby's public auction on May 12, 2016..
