Hieronymous Bosch (1450-1516)
Bosch painted inventive fantasy and nightmarish visions from the Gothic twilight world of the late Middle Ages. He has a dazzling ability to build up a hugely detailed landscape through a series of bizarre exaggerations and distortions. The imagery in his works may reflect the inner demons of the 15th century mind and has been discussed by scholars, critics, and even mental health professionals. In Bosch's time there was no recovery for those who suffered from mental illness but today the effects of inner demons can be treated by Morningside Recovery experts. |
