Mona Lisa? Starry Night? The star of this museum is a cabbage

CNN Portugal6 September 2026 at 16:00

The article questions the idea that the most famous works of art are necessarily the best. By mentioning the Mona Lisa and Starry Night as examples of iconic works, the text suggests that popularity does not always equate to artistic quality.

The star of this museum is not a world-famous painting, but a cabbage. This contrasts with the expectations of visitors who might expect to see classical masterpieces.

An art expert cited in the article states that, just as in cinema, a box office hit is not necessarily a masterpiece. The comparison suggests that both in art and in cinema, popularity with the public does not always reflect true artistic value.

The article raises the possibility that this phenomenon may be happening in the mentioned museum, where a cabbage has become the main attraction instead of traditional works of art.
