    Osculum infame is a witch’s supposed ritual greeting upon meeting with the Devil. The name means the ‘shameful kiss’ or ‘kiss of shame’, since it involved kissing the devil’s anus, his “other” mouth.

  A few years ago, the Met had a Michelangelo exhibit, and displayed this painting. It’s fairly small, about the size of a standard sheet of paper, and the colors are so vibrant, it looks like it was painted yesterday. A really remarkable painting, especially for a kid.
