While shooting for a story this weekend in Greenpoint, my husband yells at me to turn around just in time to grab this shot of old Bernie being carried down the street. The man carrying it, artist Paul Richard, is auctioning the portrait of the infamous schemer on his website.The auction ends May 8th.

I for one think it is a great piece of marketing. Of course it is likely the work will be used as an expensive dartboard.
