Marc Chagall: The Juggler (1943)

Speaking of the Times, this is the image that just appeared when I clicked over to the front page of nytimes.com. Chagall's brilliant and beautiful "The Juggler". Not too shabby.

For the article, click here. Apparently (and I'm bursting with rage as I type this), "arts institutions across the country are cleaning out their closets for auctions starting next week" -- including works by Picasso, Modigliani, and Chagall.

Which qualifies as Sign of the Apocalypse #24.
