I've often wondered how world history would have turned out if someone could take a time machine back to buy up his artwork. But the conditions of the world were such that some other scumbag would have exploted the situation.
There is never a shortage of a**holes hungry for power and never a shortage of media hacks willing to promote them in order to promote themselves. So it was then, so it is today.

Sorry, I just think it’s sick.
Why would you want the work of a monster?

All money should go to the Jewish Organizations and the artwork destroyed.
To: brownsfan
Why would you want the work of a monster? I could spare $5,000 or so each, and I'd bid if I thought there was any chance of them going for that price. It would be worth $10k or even $20k to burn them and remove one more vestige of that phase in the battle between freedom and socialism. We'll have enough new artifacts from the current flirtation with the socialist threat that we don't need the older relics too.

Hitler, now there was a painter. He could paint an entire apartment in one afternoon, TWO COATS!

Compared to Andy Warhol and some others, he did have talent.

And to think... if the Vienna Academy of Art accepted him into their school, we may box to his art instead of recoil from his name. Very talented painter from what I can see.

That should’ve been “bow to his art.”

give him a guitar, a bandana and send him On The Road Again.
Seriously he was one ugly man, but I do like Willie.

He couldn’t paint people, he was pretty good at objects and landscapes.
