    This is based on Goya’s famous painting “Saturn Devouring His Son”, if anyone was wondering.

      One of my favorites. I wish we knew if that’s really what he intended to depict - people just guessed.

        I dunno, I think that’s part of the magic of the Black Paintings. To me, what makes them truly unsettling (in the best way) is the fact that he painted them exclusively for his own desire and that we’re limited to guessing the subject matter (which, although ambiguous, was undoubtedly dark).

    This is a really good reference to classical Roman mythology. Something that the US government usually appreciates.

      It’s a reference to Goya a Spanish painter.we don’t really know if this painting was about chronos, that’s a theory.

        Huh, neat. I tend to believe it is anyways with that previous sketch and simply belonging to under the umbrella of Romanticism but there’s some solid points there against it.

    Who painted this? I want to buy this painting.

    Trump wouldn’t eat the flag, he’d use it to wipe his shit

      why do you think he’s eating it?

      Only if it’s a gilded flag.

    art is lies that reveal the truth

    -some artist

    • adj16@lemmy.world ⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Maybe you’re thinking Alan Moore in V for Vendetta?

      Artists use lies to tell the truth, while politicians use them to cover the truth up.

      • JacksonLamb@lemmy.world ⁨8⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        Definitely didn’t originate with Alan Moore. I’ve seen it attributed to Pablo Picasso but I think the first is probably Aristotle.

    I’m sure there are quite a few people that would love to see him choke on a flag.

      I think a lot of alcohol poisonings will happen on the day he dies.

        Another, yes.

        I’ve turned into a bit of a whiskey maniac since my visit to Ireland last March and enjoyed it more than I thought.

      I’d watch that Seven death a lot.

    Is there an artist or is this AI?

      Ai, it’s a parody of a famous painting “Saturn devouring his son”.

        I’m actually grateful that it is. I’d hate to think a human spent time on this. Imagine the psychological damage.

    Good one. Not that I can do any better, but would it make more sense to put the statue of liberty there to better reflect the original inspiration?
