A post on PhDiva alerted us to the brilliant Got Medieval blog, and, in particular, to a most timely, entertaining, and informative post there called Negative Campaigning, Medieval Style. We’re betting that if you look closely at the images here — medieval frescoes from the Italian city of Massa Marittima — you’re interest will be aroused and you’ll feel the urge to jump right over to Got Medieval and find out what this provocative fresco is all about!
Early this Sunday morning (the time changed this weekend in Europe so we’re all feeling rested and refreshed) we’re enjoying this ad created for OIPA, the Organizzazione Internazionale Protezione Animali (the International Organization for the Protection of Animals). A pack of dogs are rowdy attendees at a re-enactment of Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper. They sit alongside a single human, Judas, and the byline reads: “One of you betrays us 150,000 times every year.”
