Real estate mogul the mystery buyer of $16K sketch by Trump

Elie Hirschfeld bought this sketch of the Empire State Building by Donald Trump. Dubya, eat your heart out — Donald Trump is now officially a successful artist. Page Six is told that real-estate mogul Elie Hirschfeld — whose art collection includes works by Georgia O’Keeffe, Marc Chagall, Norman Rockwell and Mark Rothko, among others — bought a (very, very basic) black marker sketch of the Empire State Building by the president at auction for $16,000, some $4,000 above the estimated sale price.
