Arcimboldo, Giuseppe Painting - Fire

Fire.

Arcimboldo’s 1566 oil on wood work shows a weird looking man breathing out a flame and wearing heavy armor with holes at the sides. The head is covered with little replicas of flames leaping. The nose and ears too have been covered with a steel device. Imaginative painting here has scaled a new peak. This eerie picture can be spotted at the Kunsthistorisches Museum at Vienna in Austria.
