la restauración falla de la técnica jesus

Bad Spanish aside, I hope y’all know about this story because it has been around the net for like weeks.

What was thought to be an act of vandalism was actually a legit attempt by a senior citizen to restore a 19th century of a fresco depicting Jesus with thorn crown. The 80 year old women tried to restore the painting as the paints has flaked, however she, as you should know failed miserably (see below)

The painting has now subjected to several internet parodies which can be seen in one of my favorite site 9gag.com.

What do you think? Should we blame the lady or can we accept this as a modern art ?
