> And other than Rich Mason's magnificent photo, ditto for the rest of > this week's submissions. How much is Picasso's worst painting worth? Jim Interesting question but a bit of a non-sequiteur when discussing your photo in this week's gallery I'm afraid. Picasso's worst painting would be worthless without the reputation Picassos better paintings built. That it (the hypothetical worst) would actually fetch indecent amounts of cash at auction is tesimony to the sad losers that would buy it (collect it) for the Picasso name rather than it's artistic merit. Here's another question. Your Coot in this week's gallery. How much could you realistically sell the copyright of that image for? How much would full rights be worth if it was proven to have been taken by 1) Picasso 2) David Hockney 3) Art Wolfe 4) Ansel Adams It's the same friggin picture for goodness sake!!"!! Bob
