"Le Pont d'Argenteuil:" Monet Masterwork Torn

The good news is that "Le Pont d'Argenteuil" has been thoroughly photographed.

The bad news is that one of a bunch of drunk twits put a fist through it over the weekend.

There's a tear in that masterpiece, about 10 centimeters or 4 inches long.

One of the reasons I like the technologies developed in the last few hundred years is that this Monet has been available, in prints and other reproductionsfrom a variety of sources (those links don't imply endorsement, BTW).
