Old Marie actually suggested the peasants ate brioche, a buttery rich bread, rather than cake.

Although the comparisson, of the cosseted few, spending extravagantly, whilst the majority of people went hungry, I do find rather apt.

I'm sure my interest in this thread will diminish, just as soon as we know all the costs involved, so as to make it easier when deciding on 'the value of publicly funded art'.

Unless another event happens in the future, which might benefit from discussion, in the cost versus value debate, of state funded community art.

In which case it could run forever.

Or at least until my one good typing finger ceases to function.
