    Good stuff, Ken.

    The Farrah Fawcett portrait has quite a fascinating history, with Fawcett donating it to her alma matter, University of Texas, and her former husband, Ryan O’Neal, claiming it was his. Here’s a link to a good story from December 2023: Ryan O’Neal’s Warhol: What Happened To The Farrah Fawcett Portrait  (artlyst.com)

    Interesting collection. I imagine one would want to spend a fair bit of time at Blanton Museum of Art.
