Re: Why is this painter insane?
I call shenanigans on the whole thing. First, "insane" is a legal term, not a psychiatric one. Lawyers might argue over whether someone was insane when he committed a murder, but a psych professor would never describe someone as insane.
Second, the description of the mental disorder is very un-psychiatric. "He was constantly seeing his own fantasies all around him. He also had a certain phobia (undisclosed)." The first sentence suggests schizophrenia, though that is characterized much more by auditory hallucinations than visual. A phobia would have to be extremely severe if it manifested itself in the way the artist adapted a picture. Someone who's afraid of flying would generally be able to copy a picture of a plane. We'll have to see what the answer is, but this just seems very, very unlikely to be true.

A Russian professor has posted a picture of a painting done by someone with a severe mental disorder. A single detail of the picture shows that they are insane, but in 15 years, only a single person has figured out what it is. Can you? [/ QUOTE ]

Re: Why is this painter insane?
Fear of the Sky? In the original painting the sky is a separate entity standing above the earth with no objects in it. In the copy the trees go right up to the top of the picture linking sky and earth.

Re: Why is this painter insane?
I've grown tired of this crap. OP, you need to post the answer in white if you know it. If you don't know the answer, then damn you, damn you to Hell!

[ QUOTE ] Pretty sure whatever "answer" we end up getting is going to be unsatisfying and inconclusive. [/ QUOTE ] This is obviously true. If this many people can look at the picture and not notice anything strange, there's no way there's something there which proves the insanity of the artist. [/ QUOTE ]

Re: Why is this painter insane?
I'm disinclined to try and figure this out, for fear that the answer might be something ridiculous.
As a side, how long do we have to wait for OP to post the [censored] answer before we start seriously requesting that he be IP banned?
