According to Suzy in W magazine,
Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber "lives by Eaton Square in the heart
of endlessly exclusive Belgravia. The home comprises six stories, marble
floors, a swimming pool in the basement and a conservatory leading to attached
mews houses. It was on the market for a cool $25 million USD."
"Now that may seem
lofty loot to a lot of people, but to Lord Lloyd Webber it is but a mere
pittance. Never mind his other residences, his formidable art collection
is worth many times that. He bought a cornerstone of that collection, the
Blue Period Picasso painting Angel Fernandez de Soto, also known as The
Absinthe Drinker, at Sotheby's in New Work for $29,152,500."
