Found another link, with suggested retail price and all. Interesting bit

That's just such a great read.
Great job by writer David Segal. Thoroughly researched and written

I'm reminded of this quotation (featured in the 2013 PDML Photo
Annual):
"If you're buying it to match the sofa it's not art, it's decoration."
