Just as I was about to comment on the MR that I was in before Art, Art shows up.
How am I s'posed to angle the image to see the stretched-out skull? Print it out first? Put it in my paint program and play with it? Is putting that silly thing on this painting just "because I can"? Detracts rather badly from studying the rest of the image, as if it had been vandalized. (Or maybe that's the idea?) My 2¢ worth, not including tax.

I enjoy Hans Holbein the Younger portraits. The skin tones are vibrant and appear real and the expressions are lively. There is nothing of the stiff look in other artists' portraits. I also like the detail in the background objects which lends a greater realistic impression for the viewer. The portraits are very effective.

Look at some examples of Hans Holbein the Younger works on his Wiki page. There are some pen and ink drawings that are extraordinary. One is for a chimney piece that would be considered excellent if done with modern materials and drafting tools. Holbein achieved his results with primitive tools.
It is interesting enough, I should look up what materials he had to work with. The history of the process would be fascinating. Posted by: JTB at September 17, 2020 09:48 AM (7EjX1) 110

Holbein painted one of the first "Glamour Shots" (Anne of Cleves, who became Henry VIII's fourth wife). Henry was angry at being matched with someone he found did not resemble the painting, and some people lost their heads over it. Holbein was lucky enough to die of the plague before the prosecutor could knock on his door.

This one is a favorite of art history teachers cuz it's chock full of symbolism. The distorted image on the bottom is a skull. There are two theories on why it's there. They both could be right. One says that this work is a vanitas and the image is a memento mori, a reminder that no matter how high you rise, you will die and you can't take it with you. It's distorted cuz it draws you in to the work and makes you think about it. Everyone should really think hard about life and death.
The other theory is that it is a play on Holbien's name. Hans Holbein was the court painter for Henry VIII. These guys are ambassadors to the English court. Posted by: Kris at September 17, 2020 09:49 AM (OyyDO) 118

An explanation of the Skull:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mczs4muSUHc it can only be seen correctly if it is viewed from someone standing on the far right side, at a perspective from which the rest of the painting cannot be correctly seen. It also points out that there is a small, partially hidden crucifix at the top left corner. Death and Salvation, lurking under the surface of things.

reminder that no matter how high you rise, you will die and you can't take it with you. It's distorted cuz it draws you in to the work and makes you think about it.

Holbein painted one of the first "Glamour Shots" (Anne of Cleves, who became Henry VIII's fourth wife). Henry was angry at being matched with someone he found did not resemble the painting, and some people lost their heads over it. Holbein was lucky enough to die of the plague before the prosecutor could knock on his door.

This is a nice look at Renaissance virtue signaling. These guys are surrounded by symbols of their status and interests. They are into music, science, literature, art, math, etc. They are trying to demonstrate that they are true Renaissance men... well-rounded, intellectuals. The skull interrupts the celebration of self for the reminder of fate. Notice in the upper left there is a hidden crucifix. They want the worldly acknowledged but barely show the eternal. This might be a subtle jab from Holbein too. Or it could be the ambassadors are saying, "Oh yeah. We're pius too."

I enjoy Hans Holbein the Younger portraits. The skin tones are vibrant
and appear real and the expressions are lively. There is nothing of the stiff look in other artists' portraits. I also like the detail in the background objects which lends a greater realistic impression for the viewer. The portraits are very effective. Agreed. Weird skull aside, the rest of that painting has an amazing amount of detail down to the hardshell case for the lute under Dude #1's chair and the floor under Dude #2.

117 This one is a favorite of art history teachers cuz it's chock full of symbolism. The distorted image on the bottom is a skull. There are two theories on why it's there. They both could be right. One says that this work is a vanitas and the image is a memento mori, a reminder that no matter how high you rise, you will die and you can't take it with you. It's distorted cuz it draws you in to the work and makes you think about it. Everyone should really think hard about life and death.
The other theory is that it is a play on Holbien's name. Hans Holbein was the court painter for Henry VIII. These guys are ambassadors to the English court. Posted by: Kris at September 17, 2020 09:49 AM (OyyDO) I searched for "Holbien" and it means "hollow leg" or "wooden leg." Plausibly, Holbien used a technique that looks like a wooden leg to convey the other theories. I'm kinda' buying that. Posted by: Michael the Texan at September 17, 2020 09:58 AM (9IdCK) 177

In the enjoyable Charles Laughton movie, "The Private Lie of Henry VIII", Elsa Lanchester portrays Anne of Cleves. This film portrays Anne as perhaps not the most beautiful, but definitely the most intelligent, as she escapes Henry not only with her life, but with a pile of his loot besides.
This was probably not the most historically accurate portrayal, but Charles Laughton' version is absolutely the most memorable and enjoyable Henry VIII to appear in film. If you visualize Henry chomping on a big turkey leg, that's from this one. Posted by: Tom Servo at September 17, 2020 10:01 AM (V2Yro) 202

Wallowing here, so please pardon. Bixen was picked (remember, this is pre-Covid) because Bernie was going to be the nominee. That's why Clyburn stepped in. It showed Bernie dragging down the rest of them down ballot. Either as a vote against Bernie (split power) or people on the D side not showing up.
The econ6the way it was would have led to a Trump win. Joe was installed to get "moderates" to the polls to vote for down ballot. Joe will not debate under the pretext of Don not wearing a mask during the debate.

I saw a reply from the writer of cuties. She was trying to make a commentary about what we are doing to our daughters by allowing them unsupervised access to people like Cardi B and beyonce. We are horrified by what the girls in the movie are doing, but our daughters are doing it in real life because we don't pay attention.
Eh I think that's rationalizing after the fact. I do think she was trying convey possibly her own or people she knows - that overly-strict Muslim upbringing and breaking free of that - and this was her telling that story. I honestly don't think the pedo aspect occurred to the creatives here. Someone at some point might have maybe let them know not to overly display the girls, not to show too much because it becomes exploitative. But no one dared to criticize them b/c female POC. THAT is the sad part. Probably talented creatives, with no critical mentoring, so they never push themselves and they end up in situations like this, and the entire culture suffers for it.

Posted by: BlackOrchid_j9HX3 at September 17, 2020 10:04 AM (j9HX3) ========== I fully buy their explanation. Based on what I've read of the plot synopsis, the character's final move away from the hyper-sexualized world is there and intentional. The problem is that they chose to cast 11 year olds and then have them do the sexualized acts on camera. They didn't choose to imply the actions but to make them explicit. It's like killing a puppy for real in a movie about how killing puppies is bad (stolen from the Bee).

Why did they go with "the Younger" or "the Elder" in ancient times?
If Hans Holbein the Younger had to differentiate from his father so bad, why haven't we heard about his father? Same with Pliney the Elder. Was his kid such a huge fuck up that he had to differentiate himself with a title? Why haven't we heard about Pliney the Younger? Posted by: rickb223 at September 17, 2020 09:49 AM (U3fW+) Sometimes the Elder and Younger weren't father and son but shared the same name. The Plinys were uncle/nephew.

271 Sometimes the Elder and Younger weren't father and son but shared the same name. The Plinys were uncle/nephew. Pliny the Younger is a major source of the eruption of Vesuvius and the destruction of Pompeii. Pliny the Elder took his navy to help evacuate the city but was killed.

So when do "The younger" and "the elder" get applied? Likely by us at a much later date than when they lived so we can differentiate between the famous people with the same name.

So if you use the same font and size of words, Obama's book (If it ends up at 1600 pages or double the size of book one) will be over a million words.

Listen to this poster. This is the answer. Classic playbook being ran right here. The typical Republican squish would run from it. That is the losing play. The winning play is jump right in the middle, make it stick to Biden while proving your own innocence. That way - some will throw up their hands and tune it all out.

297 The judge who set a $1 million bail for protesters who were arrested during demonstrations following a fatal police shooting in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, will likely reconsider after widespread criticism,including from the state's lieutenant governor who deemed it "blatantly
unconstitutional." Yeah, let them back on the streets again to loot and riot. Posted by: TheQuietMan at September 17, 2020 10:16 AM (3bFb9 That's what you call "working the Umpire". The Judge knew exactly what he was doing, and he knew it would piss some people off. He also knows that they can't force him to back off unless they get a bigger Judge than him to move against him. So, Democrats are trying to apply as much back door pressure on him as they can, and who knows how much of that they have. Notice how they say "will likely reconsider".

RE: "Cuties" (have not seen & never will)
It is a longstanding Hollywood tradition to put a lot of sex on screen under the pretext of condemning the debauchery depicted, i.e., "Sodom & Gomorrah"; "Samson and Delilah"; lots of others-- altho the sex in question was VERY tame by modern standards. Anyway, "Cuties" fits perfectly in that time-honored tradition. Hollywood once called this "combining the low road and the high road," I think.

Just did some quick math. I googled longest books ever published and number 7. Sirona, Texas By Madison Cooper has 1,731 pages and is roughly 1.1 million words. The other nine book just give a word count not pages. So if you use the same font and size of words, Obama's book (If it ends up at 1600 pages or double the size of book one) will be over a million words.
Good luck selling that monstrosity, Gone with thw Wind and War and Peace clock in at roughly half a million words.

And it tells the story of Armageddon over fifteen years or more and involves various romances and quest stories. How could Obama fill twice that on his pointless, vain, venal life?

They intentionally heightened the sexuality, I'm sure. I can't get into their heads about motives, whether they even realized that pedophiles would love this shit.

So The Hill has an article saying the debates will trouble for....wait for it...Trump. The premise is that Presidents are wrapped in a bubble of "Yes men" not willing to critique or challenge him enough and sighted his performance of the townhall he did with little George.
They referenced Obama first debate with Romney. I think what they fail to realize is: 1. Trump faces viscous reporters every time he does a press conference. 2. He's done more press conferences and taken more questions then any other previous President in my life time. 3. Obama was not only in a bubble but had a fawning press blowing kisses on a daily basis. 4. George's townhall is a warning to Trump. The debates are going to be two against one. The moderators are going to run interference for Biden and "fact check" Trump every time he makes a statement. Posted by: WisRich at September 17, 2020 10:38 AM (G0vdT) 440

"How could Obama fill twice that on his pointless, vain, venal life?"
Posted by Mannix Obama's life is the application of Bill Ayers' principles, which are largely Saul Alinksy's "There is Only the Fight" and other such works in subversion. A parallel True Story of Obama, that would highlight each phase of his history (including stains on his shorts guy, Frank Marshall Davis) would be an interesting "profiles in courageous communism" story. Story is his Mom's (likely) involvement in CIA front groups, back in the day... then Rev. Wright, Ayers, Axelrod, Jarrett, right up to commie Brennan. Barry Soetoro himself was apparently involved in one of many CIA front groups (Business International Corporation BIC). To get to the real story of Barrack Hussein and the CIA/Communist chain of events ... yeah, that would be longer than War and Peace. It is not the story of peace through strength ... it is more a story of Deep State control of government via their puppets and influence machinery (EDKH).

All boat owners know this, at least powerboat owners do. I dunno about sail boats. LIVE on one??? Yikes. If u r into that fantasy, you can buy yourself a Windjammer vacation, & let the company worry about all the boat bul*zh*t. Posted by: mnw at September 17, 2020 11:08 AM (Cssks) 557

I think that is the play, here. Biden doesn't care if it sticks or not, the idea is to flood the zone with nonsense, so the average LIV schmuck tunes out to any kind of sexual allegations all together. You know. Just like the "muh russia" gambit. Posted by: Warai-otoko at September 17, 2020 10:14 AM Yep, that and to throw a bunch of annoying shit at Trump and his team that they have to spend time responding to it. It's a tactic to distract focus from both him and his team. Imagine your regular job and the normal stresses and necessary work to get the job done on time. Now imagine having everyone in your office bother you with stupid, mundane shit every hour of every day until the deadline. Things that you have to take time away from your focus on your actual job to respond to so they stop bothering you with the shit. That's the Left's/Democrats'/Deep State's tactic here for the rest of the campaign. Posted by: President Trump at September 17, 2020 11:12 AM (Do5/p) 560

Holbein's painting of the ambassadors is hanging in the National Gallery in London. I saw it, when I was in London in 1976. At the time, it was hung high on the wall, so you had to look up at it; from that angle, the object in the foreground is unmistakably a skull.
Around that time, Holbein made a book of woodcuts entitled "The Dance of Death". Each woodcut showed the figure of Death seizing somebody (a priest, a Hausfrau, a peasant, a merchant, etc.), accompanied by a little poem on how the Reaper shows up when least expected. So the "skull" image clearly meant a lot to him. Posted by: Brown Line at September 17, 2020 11:49 AM (S6ArX) 562
