Masterpiece, according to some definitions, is a work of art that is made with great skill or simply a work done with extraordinary skill. So, what determines whether a piece of work is a masterpiece or not? I guess the key word here is "skill", a.k.a. an ability to do an activity or job well, especially because you have practised it. Now we' ve come to a dangerous conclusion that every car that comes off the assembly line and is made with the help of a robot could count as a masterpice. Nonsense. There must be something we missed. I think the word we're looking for is extraordinary.
The Last Leaf is one of the best-known works of O. Henry, who is well-known for his wit and surprising endings. And, indeed, it's not until the end of the story that the reader realises just how committed Behrman, a frustrated artist who states that one day he will paint his masterpiece, actually is when he sacrifices his own life in order to save Johnsy’s. I think such an irrational and sacrificial act gives us a good example of what is really worth mentioning when you start taking stock of your life. But, alas, such examples cannot be multiplied. And that's what makes them a masterpiece.
