Babies In Renaissance Paintings Are Creepy (21 Pics)

As someone who knows nothing about art, I had no idea that babies in Renaissance paintings were so ugly. The thing is, they’re clearly very talented artists but instead of making them look like babies, they’ve painted them with the face of grown men. I know there’s probably a good explanation for this but I like to imagine the artists were just messing with people.
