...Later that day, my impulse flight provoked a stern reprimand from my parents, now deprived of the satisfaction of a neat set of 3x5s. And though I felt a slight pang of guilt when my father pointed out that he still had my six-year-old face in his wallet-window, regret quickly passed. To be honest, I have always been camera-shy and the lens has never been particularly kind in return...

How many of us have felt a pang of betrayal when a close friend or loved one has failed to share our enthusiasm for a favorite movie or novel? But the issue is blunted here by the fact that the painting is treated as a joke from the start--and a dated one at that. It's the old wheeze about how abstract art appeals only to pretentious critics (and suckers like Serge), while ordinary folks see the emperor's new clothes...
