John or Mona?
(or just another artist in darkness?) |
Some would say
that it reminds them of their aunty or maybe 'grandma
Pears' on your dad's side but believe it or not, this
painting is supposed to be John the baptiser. I could
probably accept John from the baptist or uniting church
denomination but never "John the baptiser" of
Matthew 3:1-12. |

One periodical has it as Leonardo Da Vinci's last paint job in the 15th
century. I certainly hope so, I don't think I could
bear another.
On looking at this painting I can not help but see it
for something entirely different than what it has been
titled............."ST JOHN THE BAPTIST".
I reckon Leonardo ate too much pizza and drank too much
vino when he did this one, hence put the wrong name on
it. Actually this painting looks more like the
"mythical" Mona Lisa after a failed attempt of
hormone replacement treatment was performed and she is
blaming God for it, as usual.
Painting another picture altogether
