Der Speyer by FX Messerschmidt.
Franz Xavier Messerschmidt stunned the Baroque Age with his sculptures of contorted facial expressions. The artist lost favor with the Viennese court and he retreated to Swabian Alps to complete the 64 studies while studying necromancy under the influence of the pagan prophet Hermes Trismegistus. My Art 101 professor at Boston College introduced this extraordinary sculptor to his class through ART 101 at Boston College and I thought of Franz Xavier Messerschmidt upon seeing this photo collection of women.
They seem to be in the throes of orgasm, but they actually are in the process of sneezing.
Neither a sneeze nor an orgasm lasts long, unless you fake it.
