I never cared for repaints and this is a good reason why.

This treasure was spotted while my mom and I were travelling through Friesland, Holland’s northern province. The language spoken there is totally different than Dutch.

I love the toaster in the upper left. This fresco is truly a work of art created by the original artist, and time.
