How do so many people prefer a photo (admittedly a nice one, although little artistic merit) over Van Gogh? What is wrong with you all?!

Ignoring the metaphor between realistic and stylistic approaches to graphics; it's Vincent Van fucking Gogh, possibly the greatest artist who ever lived!

Philestines!

Liking a piece of art just because its from a "famous artist" is exactly why i have 0 interest in art.

Are you implying that Van Gogh isn't a famous artist?

And wow, I'm sad for you if you have zero interest in art. Must be a sad life.

No no no, thats not what i implied at all.

I was implying that people like art from Van gogh because he is famous, its the elitist culture in this form of art that puts me off it.
