That could well be true Luis, it's just the way my mind works:) When I look at pictures, the movie reel goes off in there and people start to pop up. What they are doing, where their kids are, are they happy or oppressed-mostly nothing to do with the actual thing being presented. Whatever their economic condition-the point is that their skills and the beautiful work they did has survived for centuries-and that is important. Without the patrons the work would not exist, so it is bittersweet.
