              That's a huge price for a Klimt. I have a feeling Picasso and Van Gogh prices have just skyrocketed due to that Klimt sale. I mean... if people are willing to plunk down that much cash for a Klimt, how much more for a Picasso or Van Gogh, right?

                                  I think feeding a small country for what you have hanging in your living room would suffice

                                          it has actual gold and silver in it, dramatically increasing the price...

                                          or so the article says

                                              Looks beautiful in my opinion, very settling to the eyes.
                                              New thing to discover/reinterpret each time you look at it.


                                              *But I wouldn't even spend $100 on it if it were the exact painting, no history, from a starving artist in some back-alley in NY. Art's subjectivty in it's valuation-model will never make me a buyer. Although I can respect some artwork.

                                                  Oh, I love Klimt!
                                                  I've collected his prints for years, but to own an original, just couldn't image.
