Not a bad painting if you ask me, but who would want to own it? I certainly would not.

pretty ordinary artistry, but one hell of a conversation piece.

History says part of Hitler's problem was he failed at painting. That pic Looks pretty darn good to me. Then again - what do I know. When I saw the Mona Lisa in the Louvre (sp?) it was a major let down. Really, really small and the chick in the picture was kind'a homely. What's the big deal? Hitler's painting was better.

If I'm not mistaken. There are at least a hundred more of his paintings somewhere?

From what I understand, Hitler was not bad with buildings and scenery, but couldn't do people or animals well.
Some say his psychological makeup prevented this.
