When the Saints Go Arting In: Bartholomew

I’ve been learning about Saint Bartholomew. The bad news is he was skinned alive, which is depicted in lots of works of art.

The good news is that most of the time he looks like he’s not even that bothered. You could even go so far as to say that he takes his flayed skin and makes it FASHION.

I mean, look at how bored he is with the whole skin-removal process. It’s like, can you guys wake me up when you’re done please.

And THIS ONE. Oh yeah, this skinless dude better cover up his penis, don’t want anyone seeing THAT.

Don’t even get me started on this one. Old face is having a little sleep, but new skinless face just told a joke and is waiting for you to get it.

And here he is as painted by Michelangelo, just casually dangling his own skin off a cloud.

Thank you, this has been What’s The Skinny On Saint Bartholomew.

Sorry.
