Eric Clapton -- who's auctioned off plenty of guitars, amplifiers and wristwatches -- has decided it's time to sell a painting. The abstract painting by German artist Gerhard Richter will go up for bids at Sotheby's in London on October 12th and is expected to line Clapton's pockets with $14 to 19 million dollars.

Clapton bought the painting and two others at Sotheby's in 2001 for a total of $3.4 million.
