This will never happen. Artists have "traced" for years - and will
continue to do so. Perhaps this is a personal discovery for *you*?
What you believe you have discovered, most people (who've read art
history) already know this. The information is in there!!

This is a ridiculous statement. How could anyone who invests in art,
take advantage of its market??

As opposed to what? Fake artists? Differentiate the two.

And if you did say anything, what reaction do you think you would get?

It means that they found a way to accurately depict their subject
matter. You have a problem with that?

I have never heard a museum make an excuse for an artist's work. It's
not their policy. And what, exactly, is the disaster you're talking
about?

The real cause behind this ridiculous post? Too bad you called your
potential investors Dummies. Kinda puts a new spin on the word, eh?

My suspicion from the tone of this post, is that you *can't* sell.

YOU do. You are not every artist.

You were the one fooled. Like I said probably 3 times already. ART
