What’s wrong with the Picture?

From the BBC:-

"One of Damien Hirst’s trademark medicine cabinets has sold at auction for £9.65m, breaking the European record for work by a living artist. "

earlier…

"The day before, one of Claude Monet’s water lily paintings, Nympheas, sold for £18.5 million at Sotheby’s, having been expected to fetch around £15 million."

I know art’s subjective, and all that, but a Hirst at half the price of a Monet?
