    it's a cool general education class also!

    that art history is a subject taken by obnoxious aristocrats

    that's because college isn't free and is insanely expensive

      it's a class that they take in order to learn how to manage art assets they use to launder dirty money.

      Many of my relatives have been servants to aristocrats and they are just awful to everyone around them and art history classes are a vehicle they use to exclude others and pass down generational wealth

        do rich people really need to take the classes themselves to do that? There are no art money laundering consultants?

        in any case if college was available to all I assume the ratio of normal person to money launderer would change a bit

          what course do you think art money laundering consultants take to get qualified

          maybe if college was free but it isn't and the fine art market is also a vehicle by which the upper class control high culture
