Swastika-shaped house

15th Mar 2008

Considering that this Swastika-shaped building was designed and built after the Second World War, you have to wonder how people's minds work sometimes. And it maybe shouldn't come as any surprise that money is going to be spent on altering the appearance. I wonder how obvious it is from ground level though?

Here's another couple of man-made Swastika-shaped constructions as seen from above:

Swastika-shaped houses in Munich

Well his art is worth millions now (how ironic!) there is actually a certain lightness to painting, particularly his mother Mary and baby jesus....

The first one looks like a picture from a postcard.
Second looks like a card that a grandparent would send for your first Communion.
Last one looks like a sympathy card.

How did Intercourse, Bird-in-Hand and Blue Ball get their lewd-sounding names?

LOL Hallmark--

They look like very ordinary turn-of-the-century watercolors. Nice art if a little kitschy but not particularly spectacular.

So now he turns into the Thomas Kincade of mass murder.

Your thinking or mine: Gorgeous. Ditch the flag, though.

Nazi thinking: Non-blond hair and non-blue eyes = non-Aryan parentage.
