Metro Estación del Arte, Madrid

Metro Estación del Arte, Madrid
A bit of a shock if your carriage pulls up alongside this oversized print of Hans Holbein The Younger's Henry VIII on the Madrid metro. Totally unexpected! It's advertising the nearby Museo Reína Sofia, where it resides.
Henry VIII of England and Friedrich II Hohenstaufen, Holy Roman Emperor. These two were surely twins, seperated by 300 years! Battles with the Papacy, dynastic considerations, etc. I read their life stories and there is no difference at all!

Does seem out of place Andy, but you know these publicity people, they have to come up with something different.

Yes that would surprise me too if I were to be in a train and come across a huge picture of Henry VIII. It's a great poster.

I visited the museum with my girlfriend just to view Guernika but there was so much else. Thank you, Jenny!

Hi Andy

You have done a nice job making the photo, but personally, I can't stand the sight of the phat b'stard! Looks like a great target for a couple of yobs with a spray can or two!

Best Wishes,
Peter
