I remember this picture from our social studies book back in the 90s. Think it was the Harlem Renaissance pages



Funny, since it was painted in 1976 according to my recent research.

Just read Tom Wolfe’s book “The Painted Word” so very interested in this, thanks for mentioning it.

I enjoy freakanomics, but they are a prime example of basing their data off what their world view is, instead of basing their views on the data.

That buyer clearly isn’t concerned with temporary layoffs.

I just copied the image on to my phone for free. I can look at it whenever I want.

He paid 15 million for it and has to only look at it when he is home.

Guess I am the smart one.

I dislike them because I find them to be "junk" paintings, something akin to what any child could scrawl. I fricking loathe them because I'm told they are magnificent pieces and that I should be impressed by them.


My threshold for appreciating art is that if it looks like I could paint it I have little appreciation for it. I'm pretty sure I could paint that Picaso painting. But I know for a fact I could never come close to painting something like this Rembrandt. IMO, this is a beautiful piece of art painted by a magnificent and exceptionally skilled artist
