40mm Art lens samples posted

Does anyone else here find this photo from the new sample gallery is just an extremely good example of a "sharp" photo from a CFA camera?

It comes from here:

https://www.dpreview.com/samples/2680266403/sigma-40mm-f1-4-art-sample-gallery?utm_source=self-desktop&utm_medium=marquee&utm_campaign=traffic_source

I think I'm going to get one of those lenses. It's $1,400, so it'll be a while before I can afford one, and I think I should get a 14-24mm f2.8 Art first, but that new 40mm sure looks like a winner to me.

Here's another sample image from that gallery, which I think shows the lens to be an excellent performer:

Now I'm wondering if Sigma will make a new 58mm f1.4 Art lens to slaughter Nikon's 58mm f1.4 G. I think that would make an excellent addition to their line-up of lenses, and it could be priced at the same price point as this 40mm f1.4 Art. If they do, I hope they make one in SA mount, so I can put it on my SD Quattro H and SD1 Merrill.
