Excellent, Maggie -- though Maar's relationship with Picasso lasted longer than the "year" mentioned on your site. (That might be a typo.) As a photographer, she did document the work on "Guernica," for which she received much well-deserved attention. This latest sale is another dispiriting example of vastly-inflated art-world prices. The 1940's were not Picasso's best period, but the mere name is enough to send potential buyers scrambling.

According to the Bible, when this Gileadite woman married, she retained her own name rather than take her husband's. In fact, he, (a priest no less) took her name instead. Who was this woman, and why is her title unusual? Who's doing this and why is/are he/she/they doing this? In the movie "Schindler's List" a woman asks that her parents be put in Schindler's factory. He tells her to get out but eventually does, and she is watching as her parents walk into the factory. How come she wasn't in a concentration camp since her parents are assumedly both Jewish? There was a television movie in the early 70's about a girl and her father who lived together. There was a room at the top of the stairs that was always locked. Her father passed away and was buried with the key. When she got home from the funeral the door was open. She called her fiance and he came over and he went upstairs to the room. In the room was a guillotine. Does anyone know the name of this movie?
