    Where did it come from? I really want a collection of oversized square-ass animals to hang up in my office now.

      I’ve heard they were commissioned by land owners to show off how big their animals were. So basically like having a really expensive sports car.

  That’s a wall of beef. It’s like the painter hadn’t ever seen a bull, but just had a vague description and extrapolated.

    Showing off the giant bulls or hogs bred on your estate was a way for rich English guys to flex back in the early 1800s.

    The cow was massive, and the patron wanted the artist to make it look even bigger.

  Now let the mathematicians fight over whether you should approximate that as a “let’s assume a perfectly spherical cow” or rather as a… cube? A prism?

  Knowing capitalism, this would only lead to a sudden mass retiring of bulls whose meat would be left to rot in some obscure location.
