Post anachronistic paintings and give a short description

This is supposed to be Theodoric I, king of the Visigoths. He ruled from 418-451 ad.

The painting itself is from 1635 and clearly shows contemporary style.

I don't know. There were more painting similar to this found in his apartment dating back to WW1. Can't find them though.

Not exactly anachronism, but the same kind of speculative imagination applied to depicting Japan

The Romance of the Three Kingdoms in its entirety is an exercise in anachronism.

It had people from the Han Dynasty dressed up and using stuff from the 1100's Song Dynasty. The only reason China knows its ancient is via the fact that Feudal Nobles are present.

Relatively contemporary, but not really.
It's anachronistic, but not really contemporary to 1635. More just artistically licensed.
The decorative pauldrons and poleyns, 16th century-style tassets, and appearance otherwise isn't particularly congruous with 17th century military fashion.

I love this. The artist is amazing. I love all the details, the castles and the awesome sky and the battle itself. Why isn't the artist more famous?

That's so shitty and derivative, it doesn't even look menacing, he just looks jolly.

>he can't into uncanny
Not sure if you are serious but that jolly shit is more menacing than him being serious.

What's he so jolly about? He is in Hell with a bunch of demons.

He's satan, so what's his facial expression supposed to be? It look like he's just enjoying a meal with his bros.

Don't have an image but the famous painting of the last supper by Da Vinci has oranges laid out on the table which wouldn't have been available in the middle east during antiquity.

Here, it's George Washington and Lenin. It was made in 2015. They never actually met, having lived in two completely different periods.

There is no one RIGHT depiction of Satan. You don't get to decide what he is supposed to look like. There are many images of Satan through out the ages where he is jolly or ones were he is sad.

Here is one ancient one.
