INTRIGUING HOW MUCH BOSCH’S GIRL POOL
actually resembles Andrea Mantegna’s swamp in his
“Minerva Expelling the Vices from the Garden of Virtue”.

Their meaning doesn’t differ much either…

BOSCH PERMITTED HIMSELF MASTERFUL LIBERTIES:
in Love Garden (at BOTTOM) he added an emotional accent,
Adam & Eve watching from Limbo what their descendants were doing-
a sort of Kermit’s Statler and Waldorf…

A unique prefiguration of Christ’s descent in Hell.
A real Bosch inventio.
