An antique diamond tiara c1890 by Faberge with an estimate of GBP400-600,000 is held in front of a painting of John Lennon by Andy Warhol, in Hong Kong, on May 25. The jewels from the collection of HRH Princess Maria Gabriella di Savoia will go to auction at Christie's London post war and contemporary art evening sale in June 2007.

How does one juxtapose War and Art? Art for art's sake, and War for war's sake?

Katyzzz,

now if we could get a hold of that thing, sell it to a billionaire at twice the price, we could feed an entire country on the proceeds!

LOL

Great post!

Nick

Nick,

No need to say sorry to me, that's why I raised the question.

Love seeing you.
