price- In this piece, Ze Artisté presents another First Child of a different previous painting, The Second Cousin, if you will, and the memory of this one will not leave you anytime soon. The squeamish should stop reading now.
Here, in another paint crust extrapolation, we see a personification of a Blood Eagle, a Legendarily Gruesome Execution Method of Ancient Scandinavia, depicted as a Man, resurrected.
In the lore, whose veracity has been debated, the Blood Eagle involves placing the convicted face down, then carving an Eagle into their back with a knife, before breaking the ribs away from the spine, and finally laying the lungs outside the body. If it existed, it was brutal, agonizing, and symbolic.
The personified Blood Eagle emerges from a Lake of Blood with a heart full of burning fury and vengeance, and rests on his rusty sword for only a brief moment, to regard the merciless Sun. If he could reach the Bastard Sun with his sword, he’d cut the sonofabitch in half.
When retribution comes, the men who wielded the whips before will be forced to braid the whips that lash them. And they will slake their thirst with water that they themselves poisoned. In Hell, they will sleep on the slanted Park Benches designed to discourage sleeping by the unhoused.
A Blood Eagle was an extreme punishment, perhaps reserved for the Murderer of a King, whether The King deserved it or not…
Merika was built upon the idea of not having a King, but it seems like a lot of Modern Merikans are hoping and praying to make one. When Real Jesus comes back, he is going to look at this philandering, worship courting, deceiving Golden Cow and the crowds who bow to him, and shed a single tear, and then he’s going to get unimaginably pissed off…
This is one of those pieces that epitomizes Anti-Art. Most people will not like this image. If you like it, you’ve probably had horrible pain in your life. I’m sorry. You didn’t deserve that. I love you, you sick son of a bitch.
