Andrea once told me of one of our friends from college who was, like her, an English major, and who protested loudly when they studied some William Carlos Williams poem1: “Why are we reading this? I could have written it!” The instructor replied that, yes, perhaps he could have, but he didn’t.

With that anecdote in mind, enjoy the world’s most expensive photograph.



1 It was either “The Red Wheelbarrow” or “This is Just To Say;” I can’t recall which.
