I say without hyperbole that this is the most brazenly corrupt action in US Presidential history. That it does not immediately lead to impeachment is a dangerous sign of how far the rule of law has declined.

Quite some time ago I offered my @munterlinden.bsky.social account to the Musée Unterlinden. "munterlinden" is their name on that toXic platform where Musk manipulates the reach of free speech. But the museum didn't respond. Therefore I decided to keep my "munterlinden" account for myself.

There is a devil in the detail.

Should I better call it “Trooboo Roy”? (He’s not the friendly ghost True Boo.) How about “Trübü Rwa”?

Henry Holiday saw a #kitten in the painting when illustrating Lewis Carroll’s “The Hunting of the Snark”. #TheHuntingOfTheSnark #MUnterlinden Regrettably, the Musée Unterlinden in Colmar has no BlueSky account yet. On another account they reposted my comparison. (Links in ALT text)

#WorldCatDay #InternationalCatDay #CatDay #Kittens Details from a painting by Matthias Grünewald and from an illustration by Henry Holiday to "The Hunting of the Snark", who saw a Kitten in Grünewalds painting. To artists paredolia is a tool.

Those two images make a good couple.

How about seeing skulls?

‘Pareidolia may have been the mechanism through which figurative representation emerged’

"The art of deniability" (@mahendra.bsky.social) When Henry Holiday illustrated Lewis Carroll's "The Hunting of the Snark" (1876), his playing with the pareidolia of the beholders of his illustrations allows him to hold them responsible for the things (especially the long ones) which they "see".

As a painter, it’s been said, once Pareidolia detects an unintended face in the painting you’re doomed LOL.

How about adding "The Hunting of the Snark" to the reading&viewing list? I think that Henry Holiday's illustrations (snrk.de) are as important as Lewis Carroll's text (snrk.de/snarkhunt).

Sometimes you need to see less to see more.
