Ugly Art!


I am feeling a bit better, but am going to bed early. I will be back to the usual schedule tomorrow. Until then, I will be lazy and leave you with another installment of my series on ugly art: a diseased-looking religious icon attributed to Duccio di Buoninsegna.

I can confirm: Yep, it's ugly. Why is the child pushing at the mother's face like that?

And why does that little adult-shaped baby look like a mean-spirited businessman with an adult expression? I know I'm a poor artist and couldn't do better, but couldn't even a bricklayer back then determine that stuff was mighty poor work?

Apt title!!!! Thank goodness you are not posting any of my paintings here. (Don't reply, "not yet" lol.) This is a hoot.

Yes, I am truly fascinated by its horrific strangeness... I feel dirty after looking at it
