  1. Two renderings of a segment from #MatthiasGrünewald‘s "#TemptationOfStAnthony" (part of the #IsenheimAltarpiece), where on the right side copy a part of the rendering has been low-pass filtered and decolorized.

    I (and probably #GustaveDoré as well: snrk.de/how-gustave-dore-might) spotted a monstrous head in the "Temptations of St Anthony" painting. The #MuséeUnterlinden retweeted my findings (snrk.de/musee-unterlinden-retw).

    This is bycatch of my analysis of Henry Holiday's Snark illustrations.

  2. Gustave Doré probably spotted that hidden head many years before I found it.

    Segments from:
    ※ Left: Illustration Plate I (mirror view) by #GustaveDoré to chapter 1 in #MiguelDeCervantes#DonQuixote, 1863 edition.
    ※ Right: "Temptation of St Anthony" by #MatthiasGrünewald (c. between 1512 and 1516, a panel of the #IsenheimAltarpiece, now located at #MuseéUnterlinden, Colmar, France).
