<p>[QUOTE=&quot;techbiker, post: 4488152, member: 60629&quot;]It seems that sleek, large 4K resolution TV screens and monitors now often sell for less than many (maybe most) good quality original oil paintings. When I talk with my friends about buying some 19th century oil painting, they often suggest I buy a high end 60&quot; TV instead. They argue a nice TV with slim bezel can display almost any piece of art more cost-effectively (if one doesn&#039;t care about the painting&#039;s frame). </p><p><br /></p><p>Aside from the downsides of TVs (power requirement, cords, etc.), do my friends have a point? Is it nuts to collect antique artwork? Obviously famous, high value pieces excluded. </p><p><br /></p><p>My theory is that original artwork will become more valuable in an age of intangibles. When virtually everything can be easily reprinted or displayed, original pieces will carry relatively more value. </p><p><br /></p><p>Have you wondered about this?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
