[thechat] Heironymous Bosch

[Heironymous Bosch]

"Still, what are these hybrid creatures? Are they products of drug-induced
fantasies or of a schizophrenic mind? Neither! If one compares Bosch's style
of painting, his brush stroke, the accuracy and decisiveness of his detail
with those of well-known psychotics, e.g., van Gogh or one of several
clinical cases documented in the psychiatric literature, one realizes that
Bosch is very sober and in superb command of his painting at all times.
There are few if any accidentals, every detail has to be taken seriously and
at face value."

Bosch was clean man, did not partake drugs.
