What artwork has the most valu

I feel great artwork can be valuable for a number of reasons. The skill of the painter sometimes but I feel the way the art makes us feel is what moves us the most. If the image doesn't move us immiediatly then the story behind the picture should be all the more interesting and if the art work itself doesn't offer a good story then the story behind the painter will determine the value of the work they do.

What artwork has the most value to you and why?

Yeah, i understand and completely agree with that. With those people who actually look at art, and have more of a creative mind, like me, they like seeing some kind of story behind a picture. This just makes it more interesting. I also think that sometimes you can just sling some different colors with the brush onto a canvas and that can look ok too. It's all art to me in the end.

Arguably yet another example of overpriced art, this iconic image changed hands after a court order by the Austrian government returned it to the Artist's rightful heir after its confiscation by the Nazis during the war. Despite its inflated price-tag however, it remains one of the artist's great masterpieces and exemplifies his fascination with the flat decorative features of Egyptian art, the gold and mosaic elements of Byzantine works, Freudian and other symbolism. Reputedly an oversexed workaholic, Klimt's contribution to the Viennese Jugendstil art movement included numerous portraits of Vienna’s leading ladies, of which this portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer - the wife of Jewish entrepreneur Ferdinand Bloch-Bauer - is considered a leading example. Klimt completed a second portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer in 1912, which ranks Number 6 in the list of all-time most expensive paintings.

A very immature statement, Bernard.

I don't think any single artwork or artwork type has the most value. It all depends on personal opinion, which is why it bugs me when I hear about peices like the Mona Lisa. Now, don't get me wrong, it's a very well made painting. That said, I don't care for it all that much. I don't see why it's so famous, or so valuable. I think we place too much emphasis on the "best art" when really we just need to sit back and enjoy art as a whole more. We all have our own personal likes and dislikes, and they make us unique, which is good. I think we should all just worry about what we like and let the rest just be there, because chances are, somebody else likes it. I'm not saying we can't have opinions, I'm just saying that maybe we shouldn't decide what art is "good art" and what art is "bad art". After all, somebody saw a canvas that was colored in completely red and decided it was good enough to be in a museum, which really makes a statement if you stop to think about it enough.
