Please ignore any of the subtle hints that I may or may not have killed god :) thanks |
where is that renaissance painting with those two fellers and a giant fucking random skull on the floor that looks like it was accidentally stretched out in photoshop
THANK YOU
somebody please explain
Someone once told me it’s like that because it was designed to be hung in a stairwell so the skull pops out as you walk past.
…I guess it works but you have to be at a pretty sharp angle
There was a whole trend at one point where artists would include something in their paintings (usually a skull, for whatever reason) that’s super distorted in just the right way so that it looks normal if you hold the painting up to a convex/concave mirror. I have absolutely no idea why. But I think that’s what’s going on here.
In case anyone’s curious, here’s what it looks like when you walk past it irl:
It does have a 3D effect to it! It’s pretty neat, guess it would be even more impressive to people from the 14th century.
honestly, people just looking at the skull are missing the real deal here
You can read any implied text you see in this thing, even the book, that’s how detailed it is. Look at the painting on those letters!
jesus christ you’re just showing off now, Hans!
HANS OH MY GOD
anyway, the skull apparently had some meaning about the transcendence of death, you can only see it clearly when you can’t see the world clearly and vice versa, but man, I’m all about the detail in this guy’s shit
No, I think you’re missing the real deal here
as an art historian, i think this is the best post on tumblr

Crafting in games does nothing for me. “With 20 metal scraps and 4 legendary fire stones you can create the powerful BlunderCuss, a weapon with +45 strength +13 accuracy +9 elemental damage” Uh that’s fine I’ve got this knife here I’ll just get real good at using it
Especially when so many of these games just allow me to pick up stronger weapons by killing enemies anyway. Like sure okay I could spend half an hour collecting Assorted Bulled Shit or I could just get really good at knifing people and then get the better weapon for free
That being said I love strictly recreational crafting. “With 20 metal scraps and 4 legendary fire stones you can create a chandelier for your lair” fuck yeah man lemme harvest some SCRAPS

Chomping is a natural and good behaviour for birds! But why is this part of my hand her favourite chomping zone?
