Mirror Mirror: The Portrait of Charles III mirrored suggests the face of Baphomet
The elites have long flaunted their association with Satan. Establishment pet artist Marina Abramović has build a whole career toying with that imagery.
Now a new portaint of KIng Charles III by Jonathan Yeo has made people wonder if art is being used as a not so subtle code to show who the King’s master is.
A tradtional depiction of Baphomet:
“’King Charles. Satanists, pedophiles, extinctionists. This is what describes the people who wield the most power in the modern world,’ an X user wrote. ‘They used to hide it. But now they don’t. They flaunt their love for satan through symbolism.’
“The user continued: ‘Those who see it are branded conspiracy theorists, because the masses do not yet believe that our governments are in lock step with each other and are controlled by globalist organisations like the UN, WEF, and WHO. Our world is ruled by people who believe that earth of overpopulated and want to wipe out most of humanity. There is only one reason why not a single person that paid to rape, molest, and murder children on epstein island is in jail: They are the ones at the top.’”

A recent Art Institute of Chicago exhibit highlighted the evolving art of Pablo Picasso.
“Presenting more than 60 of Picasso’s drawings, prints, paintings, and sculptures, the show examines how these works reveal his professional relationships with art dealers and printers and his personal relationships with romantic partners, friends, and children. Because the show spans Picasso’s 70-year career, it also provides insight into the many styles Picasso practiced, from his early Blue Period to the works made during his last two decades. Here we take a closer look at some of these major artistic styles and approaches.”

Thomas Gainsborough “Wooded Landscape with Old Peasant and Donkeys outside a Barn, Ploughshare and Distant Church”
Thomas Gainsborough (May 14, 1727–August 2, 1788) was one of the most signifigant English painters of the 18th century.
“Soon exhausting the circle of potential patrons in Sudbury, Gainsborough moved with his wife and two daughters, Mary (1750–1826) and Margaret (1752–1820), to Ipswich in 1752. Although his skill as a portrait painter improved considerably during this period, it was not until the family took up residence in Bath in 1759 that Gainsborough began attracting more cosmopolitan and aristocratic clientele. Despite portraiture remaining more lucrative, Gainsborough continued to paint landscapes, often fusing the two genres within a single composition in innovative ways. “By 1774 Gainsborough had moved to London, probably inspired by the foundation of the Royal Academy in 1768, of which he was a founding member. “In London Gainsborough resided in the west wing of Schomberg House on Pall Mall, holding regular exhibitions at his studio….Gainsborough continued to enjoy considerable success in his later career, becoming a favourite painter of King George III and his family. When he died in 1788 at the age of 61, Thomas Gainsborough was widely considered to be one of the greatest artists of his era. He is buried in Kew Churchyard, London, alongside his wife Margaret.”

“From the River to the Sea,” Proposed Burning Man Installation
Burning Man is a celebration of Postmodern neo-pagen decadence, but one genocidal “artwork” was too much for even them. The title was a slogan calling for the destruction of Israel and the Jewish people. The watermelon was supposed to symbolize the colors for the flag of the non-existent country of Palestine.
“The 8-foot-by-14-foot fiberglass watermelon has the genocidal title ‘From the River to the Sea’ and was previously listed on the event’s website as part of the installation, but organizers suggest it was only submitted to cause a ‘stir’ and ‘likely won’t be part of the annual festival.’
“A petition signed by more than 1,100 people demanded its removal…”

The genius of Shakespeare is his subtle explorations of the human condition. His insights are so universal that his works have been adapted and presented to take place throughout history, from ancient Egypt to outer space.
Now a researcher has gathered together an online collection of Victorian illustrations of the Bard’s classic scenes and characters.
While reading Shakespeare’s works is still a thrilling experience for literary fiends, illustrations can help bring a little of the stage’s magic to the page. Michael John Goodman—who describes himself as an “independent researcher, writer, educator, curator and image-maker”—has made this magic easy no matter what edition you have. His Victorian Illustrated Shakespeare Archive collects over 3,000 illustrations from 19th-century British editions of Shakespeare’s Complete Works.
