Description
I present you what was intended to satirise a old women who try inappropriately to recreate their youth. Massys has evidently depicted a woman who suffered from Paget's disease, a malformation of bone. Leonardo da Vinci seems to have been inspired by Massys's painting.It is thought that an engraving of this painting inspired John Tenniel's illustrations for the Duchess in Lewis Carroll's 'Alice in WonderlandThe Legacy continues, now 3D Printed.
