Round 12: Tossup 19

Several people in this painting share bites of a blueberry-like fruit while swimming in a pool. This painting, which depicts a grisaille (“griz-EYE”) version of the world’s creation when closed, includes an elephant and giraffe among (10[1])two nudes. The face of this painting’s artist appears on a “treeman” made out of a cracked egg. An ear between two knives and a demon defecating people through an hourglass appear in a dark section of this painting with the background of a burning city. Dozens of nudes frolicking among this 1500 painting’s title scene contrast with its rightmost Hell panel. For 10 points, name this triptych by Hieronymous Bosch. ■END■
