I imagine none would sell too cheap. In the end what we keep and what we buy is determined as much by our budgets as what other choices we have. If other stuff that we covet more is available at the same time while funds are finite - decisions have to be made.

There is one room with all gold framed works. Many museums display impressionistic drawings in the same style but not sure if it fits here. Here are a few more pieces. Its a fun museum. You can even request an artist in their collection and they will bring it out for you to view in a special room they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of those cultural/art questions that I've rubbed up against when making art collecting decisions for myself on a couple occasions. http://kuow.org/post/seattle-teen-calls-out-her-dad-s-native-american-art-he-learns-she-s-right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What to even think about that. Some of those items were sold before any of us were even alive. Its potentially a questionable claim when it relies solely on what may or may not have happened to ancestors in years past. Others may disagree but its difficult for us all to come to consensus on ancient items or to say they belong to this group or that group when none of us were even born yet.
