Album art on eBay

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Check this out. I found a painting used for the cover of an album up for bids on eBay. The item description reads as follows:

this is the original cover painting for the 2005 CD/LP “the Great Destroyer” by the band Low. it was released via Sub Pop records. the image area measures about 24’ x 13” and is painted in watercolor on some rough gesso’d wood i found lying around somewheres. FULL DISCLOSURE: this was hanging on my son’s wall for a few years and some sun hit it (and besides we pumped the color a bit for the printed version in the first place…) so the color in this painting is considerably less saturated and dark as the printed version. i’ve never sold a damn thing on ebay, so questions are welcome.

I had never heard of them before and I’m not sure whether or not this painting will appeal to fans or album art collectors. The starting bid is $1,200 and there were zero bids when I saw the item on eBay.

Here is the album cover for Low’s The Great Detroyer.
