Re: Why is this painter insane?
From the professor himself:
"The professor himself may appear online tomorrow (December 1). He said the closest guess was “fear of open spaces”, and gave another clue: “what would you hear if you were inside the painting”?"

[/ QUOTE ] Is it the fact that the adults aren't comforting the baby in the carriage that would be crying from the sound of three horse drawn sleighs roaring by? Edit: or that no one is watching the sleighs?

Re: Why is this painter insane?
If I was in the painting, I would not hear any humans, as they all have their mouths closed.
Maybe I would hear the horses, since they all have their mouths open... maybe he has a fear of laughter or a fear of intimacy.

I got it! The ashes rising from the chimney's are Jews! That sick [censored] no doubt the sounds are the screams of the Jew with their horns and their claws being burned alive.

Re: Why is this painter insane?
Ok, here goes:
First thing that popped into my mind was the following: He was constantly seeing his own fantasies all around him? I think we are supposed to decide that the character on the far right sleigh is our artist, or at least it is drawn from this perspective. All of the people in the picture are sullen, save this one character. If it is a fantasy, I’m speculating that he’s racing ahead, passionately, and “leading the pack,” so to speak – while the others don’t feel it is a race. If this is a fantasy, that might make his fear a fear of failure, or something similar maybe; fear of expectations from others, something like this. Seems to be a vivid dream or delusion or something wild, re-created so it could be studied. Clues both agree and might disagree with this guess. I think the doors are too small of a detail and are irrelevant.

The only snowflakes are those in the sky. There are no snowflakes below the sky threshold. We should see some snowflakes falling closer to the viewing point, e.g., in front of the houses, etc.

I dont know. Bells, the dude's yelling at the horses, wind, the horses themselves. not sure where this is going, though. BTW, this could be the greatest thread in OOT history, or the worst. All depending on this [censored] answer.
