The 25,000 paintings are largely croste, poor quality works of little to no value.
According to critics.

Maybe if they trained the woodworms to carve intricate wood art.

much of it trash bought from late night telesales shows.
Ignorant me had assumed that late night telesales networks were a strictly USAnian disease. Sorry to hear it’s metastasized.

Italian TV is legendarily awful.
Unrelated: Silvio was a media magnate (and failed clown).

Pour one out for the insurance agent who will have to deal with Trump’s estate when it too attracts some “woodworms.”
The difference is that there will be nothing of value in Trump’s estate (unless he manages to hang on to any of the art and artifacts he stole while president).

I’m thinking of that final scene in Citzen Kane where the staff dealing with the Kane estate end up burning a lot of the property in an incinerator (or was it a fireplace?) because it has no apparent value. I wonder what Trump’s “Rosebud” is, or if he even ever had any childhood innocence to be reminded of?

Of course Silvio is part of the problem.

Most of the stuff we accumulate during our lives is more or less worthless except if it has any sentimental value to our heirs.
