Favoriting January 4, 2017: I love jazz and love brunch, but one thing up with which I will not put is Jazz Brunch. I don't like jazz with good manners. I prefer jazz that takes its shoes off and puts its feet on the coffee table.

The painting reminds me of some of the covers of science fiction paperbacks from the 1970's

Is that whispy white object just left of center a whip of the sort used by flagellants, or is it a bent whisk? If the latter, the painting is an iconic example of work from the Bent Whisk School.
