The Devil's got problems
As promised on a previous entry, here's one of the devil-themed works by Hugo Simberg. The title translates approximately as Poor Devil with its twins. Makes you chuckle doesn't it? I don't know how the artist wanted us to see it; maybe it's supposed to diminish the threat aspect of the Evil One? It also reminds me of what Father Yagher of Seven and One said:
How can we know if there is such a thing as evil? We take it on faith as we accept God. But if we fear it, do we not misplace our faith?
