El gusto es un poco dudoso pero la gente compro millones de copias de la pintura de la mujer verde. El donĂ³ sus trabajos al Museo de Arte de Sudafrica (Donde vivia) y se los rechazaron.

When I view these pieces I see the time and quality involved , it's such a reality check in so many ways.

The Green Lady is forever in the mind of the British through a peproduction appearing many times over in TV shows in particular 'Only Fools and Horses'.

I think one Prop House has several copies as well as other pieces but it is 'The Green Lady' that I've seen the most.

Wonderful story, Jimmy. A similar episode happens in a great TV play with John Hurt,"Journey to Knock (1991)Were a character who goes to Ireland as a pilgrim stops believing in God after an event of that kind.
