This guy painted portraits for a living in a country where the government picked your subjects for you. One January in 1979, he was told to splash oils on a 60th-birthday gift for Elena Ceaușescu and make her look regal. The joke is he probably knew every brushstroke would end up in the basement archives while she hung it for a week.

Find his “Tablou reprezentând-o pe Elena Ceaușescu” online, it’s the size of a highway billboard and smells like power and bad decisions.
