Re: Leonid Afremov: Where Realism Meets Modern Impressionism

Re: How Galleries Profit from Artists
This topic raises a very real issue in the art market, where the actual value created by the artist often gets diluted through commissions, discounts, and intermediaries, leaving the creator with only a small fraction of the final price.
