Why so creepy all the time?

The meeting ended early so I headed off to the National Gallery and found without looking too hard for it some pictures of creepy littleman Jesus and incorrect representations of animals from before 1500. I can't help it. These are my new pseudo-favorite kinds of art.
There were also some nice Rauschenberg prints, British photography from paper negatives, and the odd Thomas Cole "voyage of life" series that figured into a novel I just finished.
