Damien Hirst H10 โข The Empresses, by Art Buy Guy on May 25, 2022 21:45:11 GMT 1, no screenshot here, but I did watch the auction wind down live. There were 2 last minute bids which extended the sale for a few minutes but then it quickly petered out. IMO, this particular artnet auction was a complete bust...very few bids through out the entire sale. Pretty sure the hammer for Suiko was $4900? Hammer was $4,600.

Damien Hirst H10 โข The Empresses, by Adam London on Jun 8, 2022 9:05:36 GMT 1, So what is the cost in addition to the ethereum cost when buying on opensea? SO if something is about 2.5k how much extra would it cost? I guess there is no VAT added yet, and gas fees, or import taxes??

Damien Hirst H10 โข The Empresses, by Hugos There on Jun 8, 2022 16:37:34 GMT 1, My two Empresses arrived a couple of weeks back and I love them. Now that I've got my hands on them I can see why people were concerned about the glitter aspect and whether to frame or not. Without trawling through all 61 pages can anyone who has kept track of the debate please summarize what the general opinion was please? Framed or unframed?
Also, this massive writing etc is driving me insane.

Damien Hirst H10 โข The Empresses, by Charlie Bronson on Jun 9, 2022 16:49:36 GMT 1, My two Empresses arrived a couple of weeks back and I love them. Now that I've got my hands on them I can see why people were concerned about the glitter aspect and whether to frame or not. Without trawling through all 61 pages can anyone who has kept track of the debate please summarize what the general opinion was please? Framed or unframed? Also, this massive writing etc is driving me insane. There was concern by some that there could be issues with the glitter coming off, and framing it may help that issue. I have a Suiko, and canโt see that happening;the glitter isnโt going anywhere.
There was also talk of using non-reflective glass to dull down the reflectiveness of the piece.
Aesthetically speaking, I think these look anemic on the wall, as is, due to how big they are, yet how thin they are. Just my humble opinion, but these scream for a thick, box(white,black or red)frame to give it an amazing presence on the wall.
In short, imho framing isnโt necessary, but will give this piece the wall presence it deserves.

Damien Hirst H10 โข The Empresses, by Hugos There on Jun 9, 2022 18:05:29 GMT 1, Thanks for that.
I agree. I think they'll double in appeal with a chunky frame to show them off and they're nice enough already so it will definitely be a good result..
It will also eliminate the need to wait and see if the glitter is a dust gatherer or not or whether the cleaner manages to stick loads of yellow duster fluff to them even when she's been asked not to go anywhere near any artwork..

Damien Hirst H10 โข The Empresses, by Greyhound on Jun 9, 2022 18:57:57 GMT 1, My Suiko arrived today
First impression is that lighting is a real challenge with it. In natural light the reflections are really distracting, and in very bright-but-not-direct artificial light I think the glitter looks a bit gaudy. However, in direct artificial light the glitter looks great and really draws you in to the piece.
So, I think I'm going to put it in the hallway, which away from any windows but it can also benefit from a spotlight on it.
The first thing my kid did was rub the glitter, so I am now considering framing it too lol

I'm enjoying how it changes throughout the day in different light. Sometimes the glitter is pronounced, other times subdued.
So much to see in this wonderful Hirst print.

I have my eyes on another piece of art, hence the reason for the Sale. I have a below 1300 numbered Theodora, only opened once. Thanks for reading. PM for more detail.
20 words now. Nope need more words. Letโs try again! And again again again and again this is now getting beyond silly
