Apparently the people got upset at this painting had not seen Lucian Freud's other works. I think the painting looks like her.

I forgot to mention that Lucian Freud was commissioned to do this work.

Perhaps that's why they're upset.

The same folks who got upset are no doubt the same whose most prized possession are their Death of Princess Diana Franklin Mint Collectors Plates.

Yeah, I don't get it. It's looks ok to me. It's not like the virgin Mary with elephant dung on her.

Aah, but he's made her look old and miserable. In real life she's...er...old and miserable.

Some people won't be happy unless the leeching old crow is painted as a beatific saint with rays of sunlight bursting from her arse.

I'm busy recalling Monty Python, and the classic {if not that great} drawings of Terry Gilliam
