The artist is dead, or has a better agent.

well, maybe because of the "oldness" of the painting.. of course if you found a painting dated '32 B.C.' would you sell it for $1? that's my point.. or maybe the firmness and sharpness of the color (connects with the paint being used..)

Basically because famous artists created them. Or they've been around much longer.

depends on how well known the artist is, the percentage of the gallery's commission, time, materials used and size of the painting.

depends really. if it is a rennisance painting it wouold be worth alot more then any painting today. also it matters how famous the artist is, its size, and the person selling it. some people highly over price paintings. for example, once i saw a sort of hawaiin landscape that was poorly painted(14x1
 , and it was selling for $15,000!!!
