Salvador Dali painting The Temptation of Saint Anthony

Salvador Dali, The Eye of Time, 1941

Pablo thanks! Your last ignominious paintings have killed modern art. But for you, with the taste and moderation that are the very virtues of French prudence, we should had painting that was more and more ugly, for at least one hundred years, before reaching your sublime adefesios esperpentos (Spanish for monstrosities). You, with all the violence of your Iberian anarchism, have achieved the limits and the final consequences of the abominable in a mere few weeks. And this you have done, as Nietzsche would have wished, by marking it with the seal of your own blood. Now all that remains for us is to turn our eyes once more to Raphael. God preserve you! …But the dithyrambic critics of antiquated modern art remained and will long continue to remain prostatic and joyous with the ugly sitting on their knees.

It’s hot cocoa time. Which means it’s also time for me to whip out the giant Dali mug with the mysterious Japanese(?) on the back.
