Yes Helmut a naïve mistake, you must be kicking yourself that you didn't use
the two mill that was knocking about for some Lucien Feud. These paintings
were out of this world and so was the price.

Subject: Re: [MOPO] Francis Bacon painting sells for $142 million
I guess I should have picked one of his paintings up while he was alive,
when they were still available for like $2 Million... Even then, he was the
most expensive living artist.
The Francis Bacon exhibition in Berlin in 1986 (I think) was the most
amazing art show I have seen in my life. Never before or after have I seen
anything that came even remotely close to it.
