Golden Spectacle

I thought I might be the only person who thought it might be fun to see the most expensive painting in the world. However, after I saw these pix in the NY Times of crowds gathered around Klimt's "Adele Bloch-Bauer I" at Neue Galerie, I didn't even dare to venture to the upper East Side gallery owned by cosmetics mogul Ronald Lauder. The $135 million painting will be on display until Sept. 18, so I guess that I'll wait a while for the fanfare to die down before I make the trek to the UES.
