I'm not sure why you want to pick on the members of this band and their lack of knowledge of the world of painters,

but it is a truism that artist become more profitable once they are dead.

Amidst all of the dilettantes who will become more aware of the art of this original artist, speculators are now scrambling, no doubt, to find a way to cash in.

Just observing.

In the end a master painter, artist, aesthete passes away and in his place a hungry burden of talent dares to become the vacuum he has left behind, and inevitably someone will. Because we need them to. It’s people like Mr Freud that inspire us with our collective lot, no matter how ghastly or appealing it all may be at any moment. Especially at death.

I have always thought he was Lucien, and that is how I landed here, by searching for the consensus, which seems to be Lucian, so I am surprised by that, and glad to find I am not alone.

Everywhere says "he died of an illness" ... umm ... being 88 ? and hardly getting any active physical exercise? His funeral will be oh so glamorously attended if all his (living) subjects appear. The late Leigh Bowery is from my hometown. RIP.
