RE: 🎨 Deamons and Monsters - "The Temptation of St. Anthony"
That's right. Plus I don't think the people back then were aware of the danger of lead poisoning. In fact, when I lived in northern Germany in the early 80s, a lot of the plumbing was still with lead pipes.. wondering, as I'm typing this, if this English word has anything to do with the Latin word plumbum..
I'm pretty sure it does! In fact the chemical symbol for lead, Pb, stands for Plumbium too.
That's exactly what I meant... Plumbium = lead -> lead pipes -> plumbing 😁
