  3. That guy on the far left leaning of the dead body looks like he's had enough of everyone's drama. If I'm going to die at sea at least I want to do it peacefully.

  6. R1E4H3 pointed out the best pose in the painting I think. That man is incredibly relaxed. Reminds me of a pose in Albrecht Dürer's etching: Meloncholia.

  8. Fighting boredom AND learning something about classical art? Count me in. It's like I'm back in art history class in high school, except I can do this whenever I feel like it instead of it feeling like Dante's Inferno, lol.
