Ha! Some bizarre stuff there - wonder if drugs were involved!
Another artist I’d never heard of. Makes me wonder if I saw any of his portraits in Vienna, probably not likely.
I suppose a head covered in flowers is one solution for “COVID hair”...
I doubt drugs. He was in charge of big celebrations and made grandiose designs for costumes and masks and props and set decorations. Da Vinci had drawn some faces that were real but had that hideous ugliness, so that might be one influence. And it was suggested in something I read that he might have been influenced by Bosch or Breugal, both of whom I despise because I was forced into one entire class on them by my adviser, who specialized in researching them. I think he’s the equivalent of the Daily Mail visual puzzles.
