I was thinking the same.

Could be an attack against Christian artwork. They destroyed many works in the "accidental" Norte Dame cathedral fire.

This particular job feels like the artist who "restored" the painting is mocking me for finding the original aesthetically pleasing.

Could be an attack against Christian artwork.
