Seventy Thousands Euro for a Louis Vuitton Tattooed Pig

Recently, some luxury fashion design houses eager to benefit from certain animals. After the debut of Gucci dog waistcoat and Hermes cat hat, there comes the pig. The Belgian artist Wim Delvoye, who has been tattooing pigs since the 1990s, set up a tattooed pig project in the Art Farm in China.

Among the eight tattooed pigs on his exhibition, two are engraved with Louis Vuitton Monogram. Although the pigs enjoy a high treatment, being purchased insurance and applied thick sun cream, not to mention their special food, they are to pay for all these finally, in time they will be flayed for sell. And the price is shockingly high-seventy thousands euro each piece.

As I see it, it is really absurd. Art as it may be, I can't agree that it neglect publicly the strictures regarding animal welfare. How could they do this while crying for human right? Hopefully fashioners will refuse to purchase this kind of fashion products.
