The Extraction of the Stone of Madness Poster
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.

I like the design features on the website. They enable the fitting of a good quality Print to an existing frame.
This Print was of excellent quality. I would buy again.
One small gripe is that the image was not centred horizontally (about 3mm out) so needed trimming. No great hardship and may have been my fault in the setting-up.
Next time, I would choose to set the text below the picture to a smaller font.
Overall - Thank You! Looks good in its frame - Just as expected. I had a very expensive Gallery print of this before. It got damaged - hence the replacement. It compares very well.
