Five hundred years ago, an artist named Hieronymus Bosch painted a triptych called The Garden of Earthly Delights. If you examine the third painting, you’ll see an image of a dude face down under a giant lute with a musical score apparently tattooed on his ass.
An Oklahoma college student has transcribed that music and offers up this recording of Renaissance butt music.
