题目内容
Rueben Hoppenstein is a well-known doctor with offices in New York．In addition to his medical practice, Dr．Hoppenstein has an art collection．One of his private possessions is-or, rather used to be- a painting by Jan Berdyazk, a Polish artist of considerable fame in the modern art world．Unfortunately, no one- not even Dr．Hoppenstein- can see the painting any more.
The landlord of the building in which Dr．Hoppeastein maintains (keeps) his offices ordered a house painter to put a fresh coat of paint to all the walls in the offices．Such painting is usually done every three years or so, and it was right on schedule．The painter did exactly what he was told to do．He painted all the walls．The only problem was that the Berdyazk painting was on one of those walls．When no one took down the work of art, the painter covered the painting as well as the rest of the wall surface with a fresh coat of paint.
When the doctor returned to his office after a day at the hospital, he looked at the wall and saw the damage．He was absolutely angry．“It’s a good thing．I was in the operating room when you did this,” he told the painter, “or you would have painted me!”
Dr．Hoppenstein still can’t believe what happened, the seven-foot by four-foot painting was valued at more than $10,000．It stood a full two inches out from the wall．The name of the work of the art was “Out of Darkness．Light.” There was no light left when the house painter got done with it.
