NFT's have exploded into the art scene recently, with 2021 revenue already topping $2.4 bln in the first half, according to reuters.com. The Sana Collection and The Monk Estate are using the NFT art medium to honor and solidify Monk's great legacy forever, on blockchain.
This latest release is an especial treat for Monk fans and jazz enthusiasts as his personal being is captured in the "Birth Chart" NFT created by energized Artist, Ben Rizzo, based in Montclair, NJ.
Falling upon Monk's original birth chart document while organizing the house, the Monk Estate was moved and wanted to capture its meaningfulness somehow artistically.

The Monk Estate deciding to share with the world, this very intimate document, is an appreciated opportunity to learn the essence of the man behind the keys.
