Perhaps Eggleston's work will prove to be a bargain at these prices, but maybe not. I think that his photographs will prove better investments than Thomas Kincaide's paintings, but we will probably see a spike in his prices now. Simply, money cannot buy taste. And, my money is on these being Epson prints. Bill Pearce
