The
value placed on works of art will differ from the critical value placed
on the same work. Individual works of art are traded at individual
prices in the prevailing art collector’s opinion. Other elements
seemingly unrelated to the work can affect the value.
By all means shop around, compare prices,
which you will see fluctuate widely and vary from item to item as
subject and quality alter price by significant factor. However, too
great preoccupation with price can be counter-productive. A weakness for
buying bargains can be one of the worst faults that afflict a collector.
