Again, what would contemporary artists paint in this tradition? It's a fact that the Greco-Roman world and the Catholic church resonated with medieval and Renaissance artists in a way they don't with us. They painted Greek and Roman legends, and Christian mythology as well. What the fuck would our artists today paint in such somber tones? Our myths are Iron Man and Mickey Mouse.
