This super intricate, lovely tattoo mimicking “The Garden of Earthly Delights” is so detailed and delicate that it must not be what it seems. Indeed, that’s true, as the whole image is a beautifully realistic oil painting by Agnieszka Nienartowicz. It’s a remarkable composition, combining fine art and tradition with a newfound sensibility, culminating in something entirely original. The realism of the painting is testament to Nienartowicz‘s ability. Via MyModernMet:
