        This extensive exhibit of Gauguin's work is drawing large crowds at the East Building of the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C.  
      The painting above is valued at 80 million dollars. It is on loan from the Metropolitan Museum in New York City. Fortunately the painting suffered no damage when attacked by the crazy woman. It was protected by plexiglass covering the painting. It is now back on view in this exhibit.
