Art History Schlock




I think I need to start a new string sharing Art History schlock that I collect. This stuff was sent to me by my dear friend who lives in Amsterdam. From top to bottom: wrapping paper, and chocolates. Regarding the latter, my favorite ever find was a chocolate bar at the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid, sadly no longer in production, whose wrapping reproduced Picasso's Guernica." Readers, please feel free to send me more!

    BEAUTIFUL! I will send more and more. What is schlock, by the way?

    According to the Yiddish Dictionary (on line) it means:

    something cheap or inferior, shoddy merchandise; trash (American Jewish)
