Heh. A fun game to play with that painting is to see the tits as eyes. Makes all the difference.

Say, isn't that a picture of Mohammed I see in there?

Approaching a quarter bil for child's play. In time this too will be worthless. Would someone actually hang that on their wall? Really?

Well, in all fairness, the painting IS a very good and very beautiful Picasso.... as Picasso's go.

If you look carefully in the upper left section, you will find that he didn't fully cover all the number 17's.

@Van der Leun I agree that the picture is beautiful, but I think more on account of the colors than the subject.

People who make fun of Picassos and pretend that their kid could do better, beclown themselves. Seriously.

People who embarrassingly defend Picasso can't be taken seriously.
His paintings are manic herd induced financial vehicles, not art.

Looks to me as if the poor fellow had a stroke, but nobody had the decency to tell him to stop painting.
