Being grotesque doesn't negate its artistic merit - I'd rate it as one of the hundred greatest paintings of all time, one of the precursors to modernism, even marking the threshold to modernism. The grotesquerie is what makes it art.

Glad you like it. Its not a picture I would return to a museum to study or admire. Prefer a different kind of art.
