I Pencilled A Moustache And Goatee On To One Of Marcel Duchamp’s Readymade Playing Cards
On November 5, 2002, I purchased for $11,950 Marcel Duchamp’s color reproduction of Leonardo Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa: L.H.O.O.Q. Shaved (1965), (S. 615).
I pencilled a moustache and goatee on to the “L.H.O.O.Q Shaved” card and cutted it into irregular puzzle pieces.
Today is a right time to launch this artwork on the market.
Marcel Duchamp’s moustachioed Mona Lisa has sold for $750,000 a few years ago.
I think that the value of my product is somewhere between the two prices, so the starting bid is $381,000.
Marcel Duchamp’s Mona Lisa works are entitled L.H.O.O.Q, which in French sounds like the phrase “elle a chaud au cul”, roughly translated as “she’s horny”, so the product an effective aphrodisiac as well.
