Jeremy deserves nothing less than the Holy Roman Emperor Salad, including greens, beans, peas, corn, figs, plums, pomegranates, and blossoms. "Vertumnus - Rudolf II" depicts Holy Roman Emperor Rudolph II as Vertumnus, the Roman god of seasons. By Giuseppe Arcimboldo, 1591. At Skokloster Castle.

The image of a man painted entirely in fruits, vegetables, and blossoms. His chest is green leafy vegetables, his cheeks are peaches you just want to pinch, his lips are ripe red cherries, he has maybe olives for eyes, and he wears a garland of flowers. His crown is an autumnal harvest. It's weird and gorgeous.
