Collecting can cause madness or open our eyes to the world

This post was prompted by the wall hanging post today... More than a few years ago, I talked to Gordon Lankton for the first time, as we were perusing a selection of Russian Icons offered for sale on a sidewalk ... Gordon had once had 600 Russian icons in...

Collecting is such a madness! Very interesting, Mike.

Well, it may stress some relationships but it does not kill anyone! Passions keep us alive, money strectches this addiction through time. Best, E.
