“The Garden of Earthly Delights” by Hieronymus Bosch

Here is yet another painting that reminds me of “Where’s Waldo”. Artist Hieronymus Bosch created “The Garden of Earthly Delights” between 1490 and 1510. Yes- it took him literally 20 years to finish this masterpiece. There is so much to look at in this painting, that hidden messages were found as late as 2014, when a college student discovered hidden musical notes. In the lower left hand corner, there is a musical score tattooed on someone’s butt. When you play the music, it’s actually very creepy. In case you were wondering, of course there is a recording of it online, and you can listen to it here.
