A disturbing Hieronymus Bosch figurine is the gift that says, “See you in Hell!” And don’t we all know someone who deserves that?
Egg Monster figurine is 20 pounds at the National Gallery shop. More nightmarish figurines here.

Hieronymus Bosch was a bit of an Adamite. The Adamite’s believed that the appropriate way to worship God was in the buff. His paintings are interesting but I’d prefer to never see Hieronymus in the buff. Yikes!!

I read this too quickly at first and erroneously thought that thing weighed 20 pounds.
It’s just absurd enough to make me want to buy it, but I have a bad track record of being thrilled with things that leave other people upset and calling me “quirky,” a catch-all phrase for “weirdo.”
If it is discounted after Christmas I am so totally on it.
