To snigger at mercilessly. The appalling 'historical costumes', anatomically contorted poses, ubiquitous mullets, and hilarious blurb… And yet the sad thing is, technically, some of the painting is actually excellent. It seems to me sad that the dominance of the abstract/conceptual trend in art (which is now hardly 'modern' after a century) forces talented naturalistic painters to whore their talents in this way.
