OT - These two paintings caught my eye recently.

News reports from England mention the King on the right as "Burning in Hell..." in that portrait.

They are very thought provoking.

The one on the left makes me think of the 1930's or 1940's and street corner musicians of the time awaiting their chance to get on stage, waiting outside of the venue to see if they get discovered.

The right one?  Well, that "Burning In Hell" description took me by surprise.  I was thinking more of quiet mystical power.

I find the one on the left to be evocative of a certain early jazz era, as was probably intended, although it could be modern, too. I'd have that up in my home, because it has the welcome heft of several different Feels. I'd hang in a club for some added time to hear him play.

 

The one of King Charles creeps me out to the bone. I tried to comment further, but it felt too political, so I had to nix it. 🤨
