a three paneled series of paintings. On featured heaven, one featured earth and one was hell. Bosch dealt with a lot of the "bad" parts of religion that no one else wanted to think about or hear or see, like hell, the seven deadly sins, etc.

It is so detailed that you can get lost for hours on it. I don't know if it is suitable for most people's children to see, but again, my kids will be well familiarized with all of the old masters at very young ages. (I think one of the hell scenes has a guy with a flute stuck up his rear.) Again use your parential discression! ;)

Art is another issue that I have a BIG problem with society stomping down on. UGH, it really makes me mad, but that's a whole other topic.

Here are some links:

Bosch 1

Bosch 2

You can try to do a couple of searches for more his full name is:

Hieronymus Bosch (you may need to copy and paste that! hahaha!)
