Damien Hirst, The Empresses H10, by Ned Flanders on Jan 28, 2022 23:50:23 GMT 1, I slept on the virtues and regretted it. I actually liked the images from that series.
Although I appreciate the butterflies are a bit of a Hirst staple. I really hate the red black and glitter. Can’t put my finger on why but I think it looks cheap/tacky.

Damien Hirst, The Empresses H10, by nobokov on Jan 29, 2022 0:00:38 GMT 1, Was anyone else suspicious about the blue images like this fetching so much at Phillips last week? Nicely timed for launch of the reds… Yeah who wouldn't be suspicious given the art market and Damien Hirst's history with market manipulations?
Damien is a true reflection of how an artist's demand is often spurned from fake sales.
Earlier this week it was reported that the $100 million diamond skull never even sold.
Great salesman, terrible artist.

If they say signed, then they’re signed. Most of his editions are.
The cheaper charity prints were just a printed signature.

So you buying an NFT or a physical? Neither. While the addict in me is tempted by the glitter and the possibility of selling it at a profit someday, my brain knows better to save for a real painting that can be enjoyed as artwork rather than currency. |

Damien Hirst, The Empresses H10, by Inknart on Jan 29, 2022 0:17:32 GMT 1, Its a no brainer, I like the artwork, like DH and they will definitely increase in value over time. I'll hang and display NFT - love the diversity of it all. This is a dangerous one. So many people will jump in after regretting missing the virtues. My mate just bought 10

So many people will jump in after regretting missing the virtues. My mate just bought 10 I don't understand the FOMO over Hirst? You know there will another Open Edition set after this, and another, and another.... I bet he releases another round of currency this year. I like these, but honestly there will be many more releases, as long as he's living. |

Move the tea container over so it lines up with the sugar and coffee.
There’s a good lad.
And how many times have i told you NOT to leave a coke can on the side?
You better have taken a glass for it and not drinking out the tin.
Ps. Nice hirsts 🤣

Not here, hence my doubt.
Having said that I found a comment from Heni on their Instagram page and they confirm that they are hand signed.

Damien Hirst, The Empresses H10, by timtim on Jan 29, 2022 0:43:29 GMT 1, Timed edition of several prints is really a dilemma. Most likely if you buy based on aesthetics you end up buying the one that the majority will also buy. If you also want to make a sound investment, then you need to opt for the image that is possibly the least appealing as it will be released ultimately in a lower edition number. Annoying.

But surely on the secondary people still want the most aesthetically pleasing print regardless. I’d prefer to buy a 1/1000 diamond than a 1/1 turd.

If people assume these have got The Currency profit then yes. They'll sell 10000s

It’s opening up to two distinct audiences that the Currency made clear - anyone reading the Currency Discord knows there’s a whole world of collectors for whom the physical means nothing. Selling as both is genius. The question is what is the saturation point?
