The auction of a signed high-tech portrait of Warren Buffett ended Tuesday night on the occasion of the 92nd anniversary of the Oracle of Omaha.
eBay’s winning bid raised $75,100 for one of his favorite charities.
The portrait created by Motiva Art features a grid of letters on the image that light up to spell out 11 of the Berkshire Hathaway CEO’s best-known quotes.
A previous portrait of Buffett painted by performance artist Michael Israel in 10 minutes outside the Berkshire annual meeting drew a $100,000 prize in 2008.

The money raised will go to Girls Inc. of Omaha, which provides educational, cultural and recreational programs for young women in Buffett’s hometown.
The nonprofit has benefited from a number of other items the investor has auctioned off over the years.

Portrait of Warren Buffett
Before the pandemic, Buffett auctioned off private luncheons every year for 20 years and regularly raised millions for charity.
June’s lunchtime auction that raised $19 million for California’s Glide Foundation, which helps homeless people in San Francisco, drew such an astronomical winning bid, as Buffett said this year would be the last.

Buffett once sold an old wallet of his that contained a stock market tip, raising $210,000 for the organization. And in 2015, someone paid over $122,000 for Buffett’s 2006 Cadillac with his signature on the dashboard.
