Kanye West Commissioned An Artist To Paint A $40,000 Birkin Bag As Kim Kardashian's Christmas Gift

It was a good Christmas for new mom Kim Kardashian, who received probably the most expensive, bizarre purse ever from her fashion-forward fiancé, Kanye West.

While a Hermés Birkin bag alone ranges in price from $7,400 to $150,000, George Condo paintings have been displayed in such prestigious museums as the Whitney, Guggenheim, and MOMA.

The Cut puts the specific bag's cost at $40,000, but has "no guess on what he paid Condo," calling it "the ugliest bag in the history of civilization."

But this isn't the first time West and Condo have collaborated - the artist also illustrated West's 2010 album "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy."
