This Painting Is Worth How Much
This Painting is Worth How Much!
By Elton Camp
It’s called “1957-J no.2” and done by Clyfford Still
Art experts say that, if sold, thirty million’s the bill
If, like me, the career of this great artist you missed
He’s a famed post-World War abstract expressionist
“Famed” is how he’s described by those in the know
But I am forced to admit I never heard of him though
But it seems to me that if the painting’s that great
Then a much more sensible name it should rate
As an art critic I admit that I am sure not qualified
But I couldn’t believe it when the picture I spied
For it seems to me that the artist was in a rush
And just found a good place to clean his brush
