Prince Charles Sells Art to Nude Auction

[Marcella]

paraphrased from a reuters post:

"A painting by Prince Charles was sold for $7,500 at the Take Home a
Nude
Auction in Manhattan Wednesday night to benefit the New York Academy of
Art.
(Despite the name of the event, not all the works of art for sale
featured
nudes.)... Charles had painted a watercolor landscape of Hong Kong
harbor.

...Bidding for the work began at $4,000 and quickly rose in price before
it was sold to
Peter Thomas Roth, 40, of Manhattan. "I always wanted to buy another one
of his
artworks, a castle, and I never did," Roth said."

"One should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a
fine picture every day of One's life, in order that worldly cares may
not
obliterate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the
human soul. "
-Goethe

Well, I assume it was take home a nude painting, but in NY, you never know.
