Fine Art Is a copy still of the same value if it's been created by an artist of similar stature? The Canadian National Post reports that the Van Gogh sunflowers sold to a Japanese company in 1987 may actually have been a version painted by his friend Gaugin. This somewhat points up the lottery of placing a value on art. Why should ugly minor works by so-called great artists be work more than beautiful pieces by so-called minor artists? [via ArtsJournal]
