      I heared you, fartufe, I heareded you. . A good painting is a good painting; and then, so what? Move on and look at the next one; and so on and so on. It could be done by Picasso or Rembrandt or Uncle Ned or the drunk bum on the street (and after he dies, a schiester-like-character can cash in). . So the schiester industry will never die.

      Just like the song says, "Schiester folks will survive. Schiester folk will survive. EE HAWWW!"

      This wholly outclassed me. Was it effete? Or am I just too no-class to be a legitimate commenter. Doutless! I tend to wander during these artsy expose's. Amazing that you can be paid big bucks by waxing on pretty much about - what?

      I've always liked Matisse better than Picasso, and I think his work has "held up" better. I'd guess that's because it seems to presage what we might term the abstraction of commercial art. You might say he had a lithographer's eye, altho it seems he did just have a lot of trouble with perspective. The forever outré Picasso, on the other hand, when he is not borrowing from others, seems stuck in painting's past.
