a lot of his allusions were inspired from the medieval flemish allegorical tradition so that poster isn't wrong

hedonism = bad mkay?

Garden of Eden


Heaven


Hell


Not that difficult.

It is difficult, actually. That middle section could easily be seen as a dangerous lack of restraint and hedonism that leads into the third section.

>>2841259
since when is the middle one heaven?

Climbing inside of a giant oyster and shitting giant pearls is definitely my idea of a good time.

Fractured ass on the right.

Believe it or not this is a painting by a master freemason meant to illustrate a ritual induced "vision" he had. It's meant to show the human being's increasing inability to access and interact with the the immaterial spirit world as time has passed since the loss of the innocence and direct connection to God we once held before being removed from the garden of eden.

The skull split open is meant to represent his belief that during his trance/ritual induced vision, he was once again given brief access to the spirit world and connection to the grand architect of all existence.

There are many masons that believe that just as creatures physically evolved in the material world from mineral, to vegetable, and then to animal, there was also a spiritual evolution that increasingly detatched living things from the immaterial spiritual world. They believe that earlier humans had more direct interaction with spirits, god, demons, and strange creatures.
Now we live in a time where the average human has almost zero contact with any type of immaterial spiritual entity or experience without the years of study, meditation, preparation, and ritualistic practice that only ancient religious orders like the masons, kabbalistics, and other religious cults have the secrets to, though it is believed by these cults that average people do sometimes accidentally gain access to the spirit world for brief periods, like when someone inadvertently starts having astral projections, religious experiences, or near-death experiences.

Yes, most Masonic lodges are just social clubs akin to a college fraternity where people just follow old traditions they dont really understand or sit around and bullshit with eachother, but there are serious occultists and esoteric societies that seriously believe crap like this to this day.

However, in the case of the painting in the OP, that is an image based soley on one man's personal "spiritual" experience and is not part of any real doctrine
