280 SL Art

Here's an interesting piece of art that depicts a Pagoda SL. It's only appropriate that it's in a gallery in Southern California:

(Incidentally, he messed up the rear and made it look like a W 111.)

I just don't get "art".  The one of the Pagoda looks like it was trying to be physically accurate, like a photo, but there are no door seams!  Besides the rear that Doug saw, the hood bulge has a point to it.  This could all be "artistic license" or what ever, so there's really only our own opinions about what is good or bad.

The rest of the art work, I don't get it either.  My mind is too analytical.
