His grandfather was Jan van Eyck or Jan van Aken?

Bosch was a cathar, from the Greek word Katheros meaning cleansed. In his own rite, he was a crusader against evil which is portrayed in his paintings. The Garden of earthly delights shows the creation of man and woman, the center panel shows mankind indulging in all kinds of carnal activies (sin) and finally, as a result, his destiny: an eternal place of punishment ( hell and damnation).

Food & the human mind, coincides with coincidence on the orderly time lines & time: Perception: on the mind travels back in time, the present looks like tomorrow reality pulls you back, the moment of time that repeats itself as it goes forward to its ultimate goal, to travel in time & space reviving the facts that were forgotten on the present past. 🤔

Dr. Berry is brilliant. I would have loved to hear her speak longer about this painting. Fascinating about the frog in the mouth!
