That Damien Hirst’s no oil painting!

-

WORTH £300 million, he’s the world’s richest living artist, but Damien Hirst still lives in the shadow of Picasso.

Paying homage to the great Spanish painter, who liked to work in his underwear, Hirst posted this picture of himself online in pink Calvin Klein trunks, matching socks, and slippers embellishe­d with his Christian name, as he stands in front of his latest work clutching a pot of pink paint.

The 53-year-old is offering his followers a signed print of one of his Veil paintings worth £2,500 in return for a witty winning caption.

‘There’s one print called Andromeda. Whoever gives the best caption to this photo can have it,’ he says.

One fan suggests ‘Emperor with no clothes’.
