Roy Lichtenstein's - The Ring Engagement

43 posts in this topic

That's exactly what I meant. It was Ben-Day to the end. One-trick pony. Sorry I wasn't more clear.

 

I guess, by that logic, Monet was a one-trick pony too - painting one blurry image after another until the end! doh!

 

A collector should put their Monet where their mouth is, and pony up the cash for that Lichtenstein. :insane:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...runs and hides....

 

 

Pffft. My terrible Monet joke was better.

 

:D

 

I totally missed it :tonofbricks:

 

I then went back and found it, yours was better. :grin:

Lichtenstein's "The Ring (Engagement)" was bought by an Asian collector,

fetching $41.7 million, short of its $50 million estimate. But in a sign

of the ever-soaring prices for top-tier post-war works, Sotheby's noted

that "The Ring" had sold for $2.2 million when it was last auctioned in

1997.
