As you might know, Hieronymus Bosch painted this center panel of a triptych in 1504. The triptych illustrates the history of the world and progression of sin. When you looka at the center panel, The Garden of Earthly Delights is depicted here. It illustrates a world deeply engaged in sinful pleasures. But, someone made a mistake here! In an attempt to hide another famous icon of the 1500’s, the mistake took place. Typical of the sort of challenge we see, what is that mistake I was talking about? Can you spot it? Looking forward to hear your answers! Click on the image for larger verison.

    Bob B is right, but I think the mistake is that if you see the upside-down body of Christ, then it really appears that the tower is his erection, which is quite a glaring error for a painting like this…

    I think the big owl thats towards the bottom, i think it looks like its trying to cover up what someone tried to make like one of those hindo gods or w/e the one with all those arms and legs.
