Sandra Bullock's 1-year-old son Louis Bardo has received an Andy Warhol 'Peaches' painting as a gift.

The famous Warhol painting was given by the actress's agent, who won the artwork at an auction, reports US Weekly.

The auction was held at the amFAR Inspiration Gala in Los Angeles on Thursday, and Bullock's agent topped the bidding with $14,000 (£9,900). Proceeds from the auction will be donated to amFAR's AIDS research.

Bullock, who adopted her son in January 2010, also was a guest at the gala to honour the creator of amfAR, the late Elizabeth Taylor.

"I want to thank Kevin Huvane and Bryan Lourd for not being cheap f**ks and gifting my son with his first Warhol," the Blind Side actress quipped.

Bullock can be seen next in Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close with Tom Hanks, Thomas Horn, Viola Davis, John Goodman, Jeffrey Wright, James Gandolfini and Max von Sydow.
