This painting is called In a Roman Osteria by Danish artist Carl Bloch. It is a late 19th century painting that Bloch created for his friend, Moritz Melchior. It is full of… interesting details and leaves us wondering what we did to make this group of people look at us like that. I’ve gotten a few requests to cover this painting in the past few weeks, and I hope this video does this quirky painting justice. Thank you for watching!
