A Mind Full of Art | Hieronymus Bosch's ‘Garden of Earthly Delights’

Experience another 20 minutes of art-based mindfulness. People typically spend about 20 seconds looking at a painting in museums. But psychologists reckon it takes around 20 minutes to really appreciate a work of art. And that's the amount of time that many mindfulness practitioners recommend for reducing feelings of stress and anxiety. So, in this latest episode of A Mind Full of Art, sit back, take a few deep breaths, and enjoy Hieronymus Bosch’s ‘Garden of Earthly Delights’, set to a 60 bpm soundtrack designed to reduce the stress hormone cortisol, and release positivity hormone oxytocin. However long you spend with it, we hope you'll leave with a deeper appreciation of the painting, and feeling a little more in touch with your thoughts and feelings. Painted between 1490 and 1500, Bosch’s triptych, which now sits in Madrid’s Museo del Prado, explores themes of sin, punishment, and Hell. It depicts the union of Adam and Eve in Paradise, mankind succumbing to the pleasures of the flesh, and his punishment for enjoying such vices. The complex imagery is as humorous as it is shocking; its genius lying in a timeless ability to start a conversation about its curious symbolism. Want even more CULTUR.ART?
