Intense and overwhelming triptych painting by Netherlandish artist Bosch.

Worlds of detailed surreal scenes are portrayed- from the brightest, most paradise-like moments, to the darkest, most somber shadowed existence. Throughout it all the constant of elaborate weirdness remains. So magical, you can stare at it for hours!

My favorite piece of vintage jewelry, and by far the best hand-me-down ever: the silver bunny rabbit & unknown gem egg ring! Given to me by a roommate many moons ago...never to leave my sight!
