The woman became famous enough that she held her own art exhibition.

I can't process how that makes any sense.

Rest in peace, you absolute legend.

13 years already? I didn't think I was that young when it happened.

Oh... wait, I was not.

I can't see the words "Ecce Homo" without hearing the choir from the Mr. Bean intro.

I haven't seen that painting in years. I just had a look again to cheer me up. It is very funny!

Next time I'm around her town I will go to see it.

I would have like to have seen her other paintings

Haha. I remember the pics going around at the time and never really read the story. I always thought it might be someone just trolling/gaslighting people from the inside. Or malicious compliance or whatever.

I mean I'm not offended it's bad, because points at name, but I'm confused at why people give a shit about someone who was bad at something.

Celebrity we deserve. But if I remember that story correctly, she really wanted the best. No malice was involved. Just overconfidence and, I suppose, a few bottles of wine :)

She'll definitely be remembered. 

I love that story and the resulting image/painting 

Alright Jesus you have the opportunity to do something so fucking funny here that it might make up for the crucifixion and 2000 years of atrocities in your name

The 94-year-old's death was confirmed by Borja's mayor, Eduardo Arilla, in a Facebook post, in which he recognised her as a "great lover of painting from a young age".

great lover of painting

Ah, yes, Ecce Mono.
