"...The relation of price to value is nebulous. The prices of works of
art range from shamefully low to insanely high--Van Gogh's work has
suffered both extremes." --David Vestal
Given that much of what we now recognize as great art couldn't find
buyers in the artist's lifetime, I have little confidence in the art
market as a measure of the value of any work of art.
