The Extraction of the Stone of Madness Postcard
Hieronymus Bosch 1475–1480
Oil on board 48 cm × 35 cm (19 in × 14 in)
Museo del Prado, Madrid The Extraction of the Stone of Madness (The Cure of Folly) is a painting by Hieronymus Bosch, completed between 1475 and 1480.
The painting depicts the extraction of the stone of madness, a "keye" (in English a "stone" or "bulb") from a patient's head, using trepanation by a man wearing a funnel hat.[1] In the painting Bosch has exchanged the traditional "stone" as the object of extraction with the bulb of a flower. Another flower is on the table. The Gothic inscription reads:
"Meester snijt die keye ras Mijne name Is lubbert das"
(in English: "Master, cut away the stone
my name is Lubbert das"). Lubbert Das was a comical (foolish) character in Dutch literature.

Bought 10 Shakespeare quotes postcards and have framed them individually and placed them around the house Love them, some are funny and some are deep and meaningful! Lovely background on some, excellent printed words. A couple of plain white cards with black print - very stricking

My order was probably an awkward one! I asked for a range of different fine-art prints, in postcard size. It was all freshly printed, delivered quickly and at a very reasonable price. Best quality matt finish I've seen on a fine-art print.
