(Drivebycuriosity) - Naples (Napoli) has some interesting museums. Last Thursday we visited the La Mostra - Museo dela Folia: The Museum Of Madness (museodellafollia). I chose a selection of disturbing images - enjoy.
Above some paintings by Acostino Arrivabene.
Above two different versions of Mona Lisa and her admirers. Are women pigs as well? The paintings are called: "Gioconda modella inquietante/Disturbin Gioconda Model" by Lorenzo Alessandri.
Above "The extraction of the stone of Madness" by Giovanni Gasparro.
Above "Figura smarrita/Last figure" by Alessandro Papetti.
More disturbing images.
Above: "Sunt lacrime rerum (le pazze/crazy women)" by Natale Attansio.
An interesting family scene. Let the image speak for itself.
"The Adolescent" by Silvestro Lega. I don`t know why he appears in this exhibiton, but they are advertising with his portrait all over the city. surely the least disturbing.
To be continued.
