On Page 34 it talks about the value of images. The book in particular relates the value of Van Gogh and Jackson Pollock. No one can argue that Van Gogh was a master and non with any brains and/or education can argue that Pollock was a genius. One wonders, however, how much of the current value of their work is due to their genius vs. the historical drama attached to each artist. Van Gogh was crazy. He cut off his own ear and sent it to his lost love. He later killed himself. Pollock was a notorious drunk and also suffered from severe depression. How much of the value of their work is due to the historical drama attached to it? 

Who knows? Maybe someday I will be famous.... not because I am a genius, but perhaps because I can do adequate work and I have plenty of drama in my life to make  up for it? Just a thought. Perhaps, someday after I am long in the grave, people will scramble to reproduce and counterfeit my work... Or, perhaps if I am in the right place at the right time and I can capture the right image with my camera. I do have a talent for capturing the moment.
