TRUE OR FALSE.
A rich American went to Paris and bought a picture by a modern artist. He had paid a lot of money for the picture, so he thought the picture was very good. He came to the hotel where he stayed and wanted to hang the picture. To his surprise he could not tell what was the top and what was the bottom. So he thought of a plan and invited the artist to dinner. The artist looked at the picture many times. He put on his glasses and approached the picture to look at it more closely. And at last when they began to drink coffee, the artist told the American that the picture was upside down. The American was surprised and wondered why the artist had not told it to him at once. The artist had to admit that he himself was not sure about it at first. So the rich American left the picture on the wall as it was.
