Expensive art bridges

“Everyone discusses my art and pretends to understand, as if it were necessary to understand, when it is simply necessary to love.”
- Claude Monet

Je Suis Venu Te Dire Que Je M-en Vais – Claude Monet Presents Monica Nogueira

.

Recently Claude Monet’s The Railway Bridge at Argenteuil did not manage to sell too well at an auction at Christie’s in London. It is said that the reason is because of the expected recession.

Another why it made news regarding the ‘low’ sale price is because in comparison to his record sale for, one of my favourites, the Waterloo Bridge, Temps Couvert. This one got that dead Frenchman 26 million Euros.

.

I almost got one too myself. A collection of 12 in fact. It was a private sale and I was the exclusive buyer. Special price and at a slightly smaller size. (Monday morning at the Museum of Fine Arts of Antwerp.)

I bought a collection of Van Gogh instead. 12 pieces too. 6 Euros.

Now the bloody calendar is missing.
