I am not exactly an art person, but I once was explained why that painting is a big deal, the whole impasto thing, etc.

I get there and there's an horde of morons taking selfies next to the painting, and another horde of morons taking photos of the painting. I just wanted to observe a bit the depth of the carved layers of ink and how light reflected on them.

Why bother taking a photo when I can find professional high definition photos of it online?

In the end I was unable to observe anything. It was sort of a let down, and the experience made me hate people a wee bit more than before. Nobody wanted to fucking look at the painting.
