As our friends know, Tami and I like to look at art.  (Not Art, we don’t know him that well.)  A major feature on board cruise ships these days is the art gallery and art auction.  They will hold an art auction several times over the course of a cruise, and with a largely captive audience they sell a ton of it!  Tami and I like to go to see if there is something we might like, as well as to hear about the various artists they represent.

Of course, to sell as much as possible to this audience, they have to carry a selection that will appeal to a lot of different people.  At the same time, it tends to be somewhat homogeneous to broadly appeal.  In the gallery right now there are two small Rembrandt sketches, and a Picasso I like very much (unfortunately a bit out of our price range).  At the other end of the scale is a piece Tami and I have dubbed the “Worst Piece of Art Ever”.
