A millionaire ordered Picasso: “Paint something for me!!” And with that Picasso responded: Très bien!. One day later, Picasso showed the millionaire a canvas with 5 stripes, telling him: 1 million $, s’il vous plait! The millionaire was shocked: “that is excessive!!” Picasso took back the painting and answered him very angrily: “if you only see 5 stripes, paint it yourself!!”
