What is this supposed to be?
Can someone please enlighten me what this is supposed to represent??
If you're thinking that this is a flag, or a broken piece of stained glass, or some part of a jigsaw puzzle..... You're wrong!!
This is a painting by the famous Dutch painter Piet Mondrian...
This painting was recently auctioned off in Paris for...........get this:
€21,569,000
I don't even want to calculate how much that is in SGD lor....
Life is unfair man.....This looks like something that I can easily create also lor... oh boy, I think anyone can come up with something like this....
How difficult can it be? All you need is drawing paper, a ruler, some random colours (magic pens, water colour, or whatever...) and probably a black marker!!!
Ok fine, you also need to have a very stable hand....cannot be shaky, otherwise if you colour outside the boxes, then fail liao....buahahahaha....
Ok ok... cannot seem so uncultured....must at least pretend that I understand the story/message behind this picture.... you know what they say "a picture is worth a thousand words"....so shhh...I'm trying to concentrate here.....I got artistic side also ok?
hmm.....I think if I squint my eyes really hard....... I can make out random bits of grey here and there..... is that the trick behind this picture...or is that just because my eyesight is fuzzy? wahahaha....
ok ok....seriously...enough of jokes..... this painting got very cool name can? It's called ...
Composition avec bleu, rouge, jaune et noir
In French somemore ok? Very classy right?
I think if translated in English, it's called "Composition with blue, red, yellow and black"
???!!!
Anyway, here's a picture of the guy himself who painted this:
He looks extremely bored....... and boring also.
He looks like someone whose table mats must run parallel to the table edges...
buahahaha....
