Wonderful painting, I spotted it in a charity shop a few weeks back and was very tempted to buy it, but the colour was rather washed out.

I sent the pic to my friend who said it's one of his all time favorites, I put the snap on Pixelfed and someone appeared almost instantly to tell me this is in fact terrible art.

Well, I hope that Negative Nancy stubs their toe, like, 16 times a day for a whole year.

I think the only thing I miss from Facebook years back was the Terrible Art in Charity Shops group. I was quite please to find good art and surprised to get an instant 'yuk' 🤣

It was just a confused Welshman, the only person I've come across to blame something, blood libel, on Geoffrey of Monmouth that wasn't actually his fault after insulting the painting.
