What the
He a freak.
Rembrandt van Rijn created a small number of works that depict peeing or pooping, which are notable for their raw depiction of everyday life and sometimes interpreted as having symbolic or philosophical meaning. Based on available sources, here are the specific works identified:
• Pissing Man (1631): An etching depicting a man urinating.
• Pissing Woman (1631): An etching showing a woman urinating, sometimes referred to as “Woman Making Water and Defecating” due to the squatting position, though urination is the primary act depicted.
• Woman with a Pissing Child (c. 1657–58): A drawing of a woman assisting a boy who is urinating.
• The Good Samaritan (1630): An etching that includes a dog defecating in the foreground, noted for its earthy realism.
• The Abduction of Ganymede (1635): A painting depicting the mythological figure Ganymede, a child, urinating in terror as he is carried off by Zeus in the form of an eagle.
These works total five distinct pieces (three etchings, one drawing, and one painting) that explicitly show or are associated with peeing or pooping. The etchings from 1631 are particularly noted for their provocative realism and possible metaphorical commentary on the artistic process, as some scholars suggest the act of urination relates to the etching process itself (e.g., the use of acid, likened to “strong water”). The inclusion of such acts in Rembrandt’s work reflects his interest in capturing unfiltered human and animal behavior, often contrasting with the idealized subjects of his contemporaries.
If you’re interested in further details about these works, their artistic significance, or their locations (e.g., collections like the Rijksmuseum), let me know!

They had a picasso for sure. The one where acrobat just chilling.
Picasso’s Seated Acrobat with Folded Arms (1923), which was in Vladimir Horowitz’s collection, last sold at Sotheby’s Parke‐Bernet in May 1980 for $3 million (The Washington Post). Adjusted for U.S. consumer‐price inflation alone, that $3 million equates to roughly $10 million in mid-2025 dollars.
However, the auction market for Picasso’s Rose Period circus scenes has outpaced ordinary inflation by a wide margin. For instance, his watercolor An Acrobat and Young Harlequin sold for $38.35 million in 1988 (a then-world record for 20th-century art) (UPI), and Blue- and Rose-Period canvases regularly fetch well into the tens of millions today.
Taken together, these comparables suggest that if Seated Acrobat with Folded Arms came to market in 2025, it would very likely carry a pre-sale estimate in the region of $25 – 35 million (and could easily exceed that once bidding commences).
Love that he and wanda blasting smoke rings on 50 million dollar painting for years.
