Yes, you're so right. Painting is a different kind of investment and if it is from a up and coming artist, the painting will be worth lots of money 1 day (think of the possibilites of more LV's)mas2388 said:The bag will always be there. If you love the painting go for it! It will bring a smile to your face everytime you see it and it will appreciate in value. You will hate yourself later when it's not available for you anymore.
