Peace, at Last! Edition of 100, lithograph. Salvador Dalí, 1973. Recently sold at auction for less than $1000.
Campbell's Soup II, edition of 250 hand signed by Andy Warhol. A full set of 10 prints, with matching mint number, was recently sold for $300k.
About provenance and data permanence. I can’t stress enough the importance of the bitcoin blocks. Museums will start to acquire and preserve works on Bitcoin. The simplicity of protocols such as Ordinals lies here. The museum of the future will feature the block # of a given work. Flora Form is in the Belvedere’s permanent collection.

A curious 1968 terracotta, in an edition of 200 pieces. Pablo Picasso, Rider and Horse. One recently sold for sub $5k.
An edition of 16, offered as Prints on /gamma. MCE Flying Fish, 100% JavaScript, is inspired by DEPTH, a 1955 work by the Dutch Master and pioneer in impossible graphics and OP Art. MC Escher and William J. Kolomyjec, known as Dr. Bill, share many things in common. For example, both have seen some recognition late in their seventies... 😊

Jean-Michel Basquiat multiples that don’t cost millions? During my research I was impressed by the number of posthumous works selling way high in price (north of seven figures). The Anatomy series, however, produced around 1982 are small editions, within 40 or less, on black Arches paper ranging in the $30k at several galleries and art marketplace platforms.
Egon Schiele, Mother and Child, 1916, pencil on paper; private collection.
A recent discovery by Jane Kallir and Kerstin Jesse, curators of the upcoming show at the Leopold Museum, may change the market of this artist: his sister's first born who was not known up until now.

Le Fils de l’Homme (Son of Man), 1973, offered as original lithograph. Signed & Numbered, 525/750, it's one of the cheapest René Magritte one could possibly buy. Offered for sub 4000€ at Galerie Mourlot.
Interestingly, surrealism is driving contemporary art sales. Overall the market is down bad, as this interesting article by Mutual Art describes. In the pic below:

My Top 9 on @rodeodotclub featuring @jjjjjohn, @jack, @kristopher, @studioyorktown, and others. I'd be interesting to have a better look at Full Sets. 👀

Jacques-Louis David, Napoleon Crossing the Alps. Circa 1801 and 1805. In The Belvedere Museum permanent collection (sorry for the pic 😆 )
Two stunning Edvard Munch have been donated to the Harvard Art Museums in Cambridge by two of their most prolific patrons passed years ago. Both they'll be on view next month. Two Human Beings (The Lonely Ones), 1906–8. Oil on canvas. And (in the pic below) Two Human Beings (The Lonely Ones), 1899. Woodcut printed in orange, yellow, black, and dark greenish blue on tan wove paper.
A 1967 $300 Andy Warhol? Seems so, part of an unsigned collection lithographs which may or may nor represent the lowest entry price for the Master. Originally released as a 3D index book, some are still available. DYOR as always, of course. :)

Inspired by that $1200 edition of 250 Salvator Dalì, I would like to take on a new challenge... searching and sharing the cheapest works (multiples, of course) from our beloved Old Masters. Just as an exercise. Doing so I tried with Pablo Picasso. And I am already struggling with an interesting find: in 1970 he supervised the print of 666 editions which are now offered unsigned. A big risk but with prices starting at sub $2k. Le Gôut du Bonheur, lithograph 13'' x 10'.

I am thinking of taking a break from Rodeo. So far, I've enjoyed collecting with Rodeo: it's affordable, fun, and rewarding. I'm glad I could collect full sets from my favorite artists and discover new ones. However, it requires some time, like every social app, and the costs can quickly escalate. While each post is only 30 cents, collecting full sets from multiple artists can become expensive. Despite this, the protocol is simply amazing; I think it has a bright future ahead!
Hey folks, I'm humbled and honored to collaborate with William J. Kolomyjec (aka Dr. Bill). Tomorrow, Thursday Feb 6th, he's launching his very first Bitcoin Ordinals 72-hour open edition. For about 10 bucks, plus fees, you can collect a piece of his legacy on the main chain. This is "Plasma Pong," an animated piece that personally reminds me of his early 1970s work.

Legend says a $50 garage sale hid a treasure: after four years study, a group of expert now believe it's a Van Gogh. "Elimar", circa 1889, still missing an official "attribution" by the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam as the official and highest institution.
One has been pulled on top after I 'flipped' his '14' to get some ETH to continue collecting. These are great artists who, outside of @rodeodotclub, are not accessible to many. They have been working on a great body of works which is unique to this channel. Thank you @justinaversano, @fvckrender and @jack. Do you guys like to collect full sets as well?
What's the deal with $DEGEN bans? Suddenly many (myself included) have been penalised and those $DEGEN are now gone... I mean why? Peanuts by any means... but still not cool
Akseli Gallen-Kallela, Lake View, 1901. From the Finnish National Gallery permanent collection, and currently in view for the last week at Vienna's Belvedere (Lower) Museum.
I swear it's not an AI generated image! 😀 A licensed LEGO kit (2,615 pieces!) created in collaboration with the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam (Netherlands). An interpretation of the 1889 Sunflowers masterpiece painted by Van Gogh in Arles.
