This is amazing, Not because the art is great, not even because of the fact that it is such a cool scene, but because the couch catches my attention more than the art on the walls.

You took a picture of one of the most interesting objects in the world and juxtaposed it against one of the most boring and somehow made the boring object seem more important than the brilliant piece of art on the wall. Kuddos to you good sir.
