[edit] More to say about this than price?

<venting>There's got to be more to say about this painting than its price. Why is it important in the history of art? Why is it considered so precious? What is the "story" of the painting?</venting>>>sparkit|TALK<< 00:47, August 17, 2005 (UTC)

We might start with its name. I apologize for being an uncultured lout, but I don't know enough French to translate toe "Bal au" part. ^L_Wizard @ 00:14, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

would a very old print of the painting have any value ?

[edit] Which is which?

There appears to be some confusion between Bal au moulin de la Galette, Montmartre and Au Moulin de la Galette. I gather the larger painting is the one in the Orsay, and smaller was sold at auction and is now in private ownership. Can someone find definitive confirmation of this and perhaps sort this out in the respective articles? -Twirling 18:15, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
