Fallen Hamprince: Nov 12, 2016

OK, I'm always saying, when it comes to portraiture, we just don't win any more. in the old days they would paint magnificent, beautiful, just beautiful presidential portraits, with the best composition, with the [unintelligable] - the finest brushwork, just incredible. Unbelievable. i was a very good student, in art history, i was one of the best, a lot of people told me. but now i look at the portraits they have up there and believe me, they're terrible. just disgusting. most of them aren't even paintings, they're photos. can you believe that? photos. so cheap, just awful, awful stuff. we have to do better, and we are doing better, we're doing so much better, because the people we're bringing in now - look folks, believe me, they're some of the best artists and the best people, and they're going to be doing a terrific job.
