the opening of the museum Clifford Steele . It turns out that this outstanding and popular artist in his life had sold only 5%of the pictures , the rest of 2400 and now they kept this all in one museum .
Picasso , too, retained enough of work from all periods of his property.
Glory of Van Gogh , too, to some extent based on the works of artist - neraspylennosti they were not sold during his lifetime and then the whole array was in the same hands.
This suggests that high merchantability artist - evil. Sold to only a small portion , or leave the picture for a penny , sprayed and disappear from view of the public.
