The day of reckoning is here! I repeat the day of reckoning is here!!
If a photograph is a "mirror with a memory" SmartPhones are making everybody the Matthew Bradys of the 21st Century.
Classical works of art ae copied with visual acuity in details it isn't funny. Digital photos no longer "inform and entertain" they are a way of life.Everything antique is being sent south WITH THE HERE AND NOW.
Wood carvers seem to be out of business save for CAD designs, etc. Clock makers sport digital SmartPhones on their wrists. The world of antiques has been transformed to "Just Plain Bills."
Man's search for mechanical intdependence saw the steam engine invented by James Watt 230 years ago. Steam engines traveled the rails across the Land. Rudolph Diesel invented the automobile followed by Ford and others. Gradually cars were the rage.All black... and yes, today.. all BLACK!
The world of 2018 is rapidly becoming surreal which poses the question WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF ANTIQUES?
WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF ANTIQUES?
