Where did you find the first pic? as I think it is not the original but an altered picture. Kind of like the picture of Henry VIII instead of holding a glove is holding a roasted turkey leg or an Italian painting of a grandfather and grandson where the grandfather has a bulbous nose and they put a fly on it. The hand is more incline towards the hand on the back of a chair then pissing in a pot.
De -----Original Message----- While poking around, I found this picture, and was a little surprised to see what the fellow on the left was doing next to the dining room table. http://tinyurl.com/29t36b In an attempt to assure myself of what I thought I was seeing, I thought I would look it up on Bildindex since sometimes they have a zoom feature. To my surprise, I found this copy, missing the "action." I'd be curious to know when this "adjustment" was made. http://tinyurl.com/2ptvcp I know this is probably one of those morality paintings like gluttony, but did people really pee at the table??? I knew things with respect to bodily functions were pretty public, but sheesh! Sheesh! _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
