26 Monomaniac of Envy, also known by the name of Hyena of Salpêtrière, Portrait of a Woman Suffering from Obsessive Envy, and Manic Envy, is an oil-on-canvas painting by the French Romantic artist Théodore Géricault. Painted as part of his series of ten portraits on the mentally ill, it is one of only five known to survive today.

32 Gericault was obsessed with death and decay. He painted "The Raft of the Medusa" that is full of corpses (along with a few survivors of a shipwreck), and he painted a whole series of paintings of inmates of a lunatic asylum. This is one of that series.

88 This isn't something I would hang but it does display Théodore Géricault's considerable talent. The expression combined with the subtle green shades in her skin tones gets the point across of what envy looks like or does to a person. Realistic enough to be recognized but exaggerated just enough to illustrate the moral.

Géricault does some realistic and detailed paintings but I think his strong suit is with horses, which are beautifully rendered.

eyes are dead on the top third line, just slightly left of vertical center. Kind of works to force your attention and create a sense of intentional positioning.

And i suppose the point is to create focus on one point and not invite distraction or side quests in the viewer's mind. You're not meant to wonder what's going on or go on a journey of conjecturing and wondering and musing. It's just -BLAM- old lady. Viewer discomfort. End of story.

Swimmers dragged it onto the shore and called the police. Testing confirmed that it was $1.5 million worth of cocaine. Authorities are now investigating the incident. The bundle reportedly contained 50 individually wrapped kilos and weighed 110 pounds. It had been in the water for so long that barnacles were attached to it.

"Making life is not as important as all the things that have to happen inside the body in order to make life".

Which is already so twisted and contorted - because it's a straight up intentional denial of God and Truth. The pretzel bending there is the stuff of legend.

In her stupid mind, as much as this has come from her stupid mind and not some dumbass leftard book she read (my guess), her point is "the other life inside us thing is great and all, but what about meeeeee".

380 Mamdani was at 18% to win on Polymarket on June 22nd. He’s at 70% now.

Everyone’s acting like it’s a done deal. But it’s not. He came out of nowhere but he could also crash and burn. 4 months is a long time until the general. And there’s a lot of NYC money that will be spent to get someone else in.

In a perverse sort of way, it's not being a happy woman that has brought her wealth.

No one has been backstopping her curriculum vitae up until now for her to sit around being happy and well adjusted and not bitching about her melanin and lady parts.

I think some dumb leftard came up with a scientific theory that puts the "woman" first. That's all this is.

And they wrote some treatise on it and dopey Mooch had someone tell her what it was about.

I have seen this so many times from Karen's. They read these indoctrinating diatribes that are affirming in all the wrong ways and think it makes them smart. What it does is give them license to believe all the stuff they want to believe including the stuff that's the most psychotic and stupid. Like "the life inside me is worth less than I am". They have got to the point where they cant really deny that it's a life - so now it's onto the next which is "women are very scientifically complicated creatures, here's how". And this "complication" when tied in with the history of "oppression" allows them an out in having any regard at all (including God's built in regard) for the beating heart inside them.

401 La Monomane de L'envie
Théodore Géricault

Wikipedia, in part, "Monomaniac of Envy (Monomane de l’envie),[1]: 4 also known by the name of Hyena of Salpêtrière,[2] Portrait of a Woman Suffering from Obsessive Envy,[2] and Manic Envy,[3] is an oil-on-canvas painting by the French Romantic artist Théodore Géricault. Painted as part of his series of ten portraits on the mentally ill, it is one of only five known to survive today.[3] It is currently housed in the Museum of Fine Arts of Lyon, France."

Very interesting, though I wouldn't hang today's art offering. Thanks.
