Let's suppose I bought a Picaso painting 10 years ago for 1 million dollars and sell it today for 10 millions. Where did the surplus labor come into Picaso's painting that I was keepin in a locker in a bank? First tell me what, according to you, would be Marx's answer since I presume we are talking about Marx's concept of surplus labor. Then you could tell me what would be your answer if you disagree with Marx's answer.
