Steve Wynn

Steve bought the “Johannes Vermeer” crafted painting “Young Woman Seated at a Virginal” at Sotheby's auction in 2004 for a hefty $30 million. The attractive piece of art was the first Vermeer painting which arrived for sale after more than 80 years. The glorious painting was a part of the Casino tycoon’s exquisite art collection till he sold it to a private buyer for the same amount of $30 million.

Art enthusiast Steve bought four “Ming Dynasty porcelain vases”, for an astonishing $12.8 million. The Casino magnate purchased the ancient rare 18th century Chinese vases at a London auction for decorating his “Cotai Resort Hotel” in Macau and enhancing his art collection. The ornamental vases feature Buddhist and Taoist emblems embroidered with 19th century metal mounts. By purchasing the rare underglaze vases for the mentioned amount, the billionaire set a world record for Ming porcelain, tagging him as a bona fide collector. 

Steve’s magnificent art collection would have been truly incomplete without the most extraordinary glass sculpture “Fiori di Como”, which the billionaire bought for an estimated sum of $40 million. Designed by Seattle artist “Dale Chihuly”, the spectacular chandelier is a stunning glass sculptor featuring 2,000 hand-blown glass blossoms, and finds its prestigious place in the lobby of Steve’s high-end casino resort “Bellagio”.

The Casino collector bought the “Edgar Degas” painting “Dancer Taking a Bow” in 1998, for an estimated sum of $12 million, to keep it on display at his high-end casino resort “Bellagio”. The exquisite piece of art portrays a dancing girl taking a bow which appears extremely dainty and beautiful and is considered to be one of the most celebrated subjects of the artist. 

The casino tycoon is an incredible art lover, which is revealed from his acquisition of the Le Reve oil painting. Steve bought the splendid piece of art in 2001, for an estimated amount of $60 million from an Austrian-born investment fund manager. Crafted by “Pablo Picasso”, one of the most eminent artists of the 20th century, the erotic painting portrays the artist’s 22-year-old mistress in sophisticated outlines and contrasted colors. The marvelous painting was the master piece in Wynn’s collection and the billionaire even decided to name his “Wynn Las Vegas” resort after it. At one point of time the casino lover had decided to sell the master piece to American Hedge fund manager “Steven A. Cohen” for a hefty $139 million, but later on changed his verdict.
