This took probably a few hundred hours to create the finer details, the near-realist faces, and hundreds of different mixes of paints to painstakingly create.
I could make this in an afternoon.

no you couldn't
I do admire the art of the past much more though... I wish I had been born wealthy, so I could have become a painter.

American middle class. Being a great painter requires training since childhood, and being able to support yourself as an artist is very difficult, so artists come from the upper class.

I can ADMIRE some of Picasso's work, and there is some value in his version of the Rape of Sabines, but there is much more time and effort put into Poussin's version then Picasso's.
By his own ideology, Picasso was a communist after all and followed the LTV, his work here at least is vasly inferior in value to the Pousin version.
At least picasso put some effort into his works. That is more than can be said for most modern art.

Can someone explain to me what's actually supposed to be good about this? Please don't resort to just calling me a pleb because my dad's an artfag and that's typically his argument.
What in the hell is good about that? It literally looks like it could have been done by a particularly autistic 7 year old with too much time on his hands.
