Damien Hirst - The Beautiful Paintings, by Gunny on Oct 5, 2023 11:37:03 GMT 1, Two things i have noticed about these. The 'blurry ones' look like they have not been printed properly, even though that is the way they are supposed to look. Therefore, on the bigger ones that is much more in your face. In my opinion, they look like a cheap ikea type printed product. On the other hand, the clear ones, look great IMO - especially in the small size. The bigger you go the more they look printed............. glad I bought a small one, a clear small one.

The UK top left and Spain below - now I can’t unsee it God damn. Actually kind of liked it until I read this.

(*I guess that will have an impact on the potential resale value)

I do like it though, and it'll add a lovely splash of colour to any room in the house.

It's an interesting dynamic buying something that the artist didn't exactly make, I wouldn't have a problem with it myself, if I liked it.

At least with the NFTs, they like people reselling them.

Still, I do believe they make a genuine effort to assign (some) limited edition pieces to genuine collectors

Don't worry, embrace the pink! Ended up throwing it here and think it looks nice (photo a bit rubbish but the room quite dark so embracing the pink at low lighting 🌚 )

In case you have a six or seven-figure sum to play with in your art war chest, consider picking up a painting by one of the Pre‑Raphaelites, which would also complement your home.
As an ideal, my suggestion would be Rosa Triplex by Dante Gabriel Rossetti — featuring a triple portrait of May Morris:

I like it a lot, but for some reason I am not a big fan of art with relatively realistic faces. I like many, but don’t like the idea of them on the wall at home.

The Rossetti painting sold for just over £900,000 at Christie's, London in 2014*.
While somewhat of an esoteric reference, I'd been focused on the wall fabric to the left of your photo, which is part of the Melsetter series released by Morris & Co. a few years ago*.
That series was inspired by embroidered bed hangings, crafted for Melsetter House in Orkney, Scotland and designed by May Morris — being the woman featured in Rosa Triplex.
