This painting from ADEL of a sugar farmers wife was sold recently for $135M. First in history a art piece of this price tag. What do u all think??

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?

corvette · 06-21-2006, 03:51 PM

...or how much for his "the kiss"

LauLau · 06-21-2006, 03:58 PM

love yellow. wanna buy it

PimpDaddyPants · 06-21-2006, 04:12 PM

I agree with all of you. If anyone has any picasso or van gohn i'd get them re-appraised

My 2cts

Klimt is one of my faves

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

Spunky · 06-21-2006, 04:18 PM

Crazy shit..some people have too much money

FTVBeauties · 06-21-2006, 04:51 PM

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

or so the article says

AVM · 06-21-2006, 05:44 PM

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.

Anya · 06-21-2006, 05:59 PM

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

'Portrait of Dr. Gachet'--one of Van Gogh's masterpieces and is considered as one of the most expensive paintings of all time has a current value of $117,000,000.. Jaw dropping but 'STILL', this value is expected to go higher by these coming years.

2HousePlague · 06-21-2006, 06:38 PM

"The Kiss" might have been worth that much.

Bdiddy · 06-21-2006, 06:44 PM

Thats a classy painting. Wish I had that kind of scratch

ridikuloz · 06-21-2006, 06:49 PM

Give me $135 million and i'll make a painting or maybe 2 paintings better than that.

Dwreck · 06-21-2006, 06:57 PM

Interesting read. I dont know much about Art in general .I dont quite appraicate it yet. Maybe in due time.

Who and where can I read up about it? Im always willing to learn.

dunefield · 06-21-2006, 07:00 PM

i gotta ask... how does something like that be worth so much?

Love Sex · 06-21-2006, 07:00 PM

american pervert · 06-21-2006, 07:01 PM
