Something tells me it was Ivan the Terrible's fault.

This picture expertly captures so many intense emotions: Horror, regret, loneliness, grief, confusion, sadness, devastation, haunted, loss.

It's something that grabs my attention every time I see it, and I can't look away.

I've seen this painting in Moscow. It's cool on the internet; it's horrifying in person.
