Old reality: just as twisted as today

Found: On sale at one of the major auction houses.  As I recall, King Louis the 11th of France.  Quite a looker he is!  This is exactly the type and kind of distortion I'm looking to achieve and add to the images in my work.  The funny, scary, creepy all rolled into one package and it's 15th century?  Nothing much I can do to make it more of this.
