Why Everyone Hates This Lucifer Painting

In 1797, an artist renowned for his portraits of the English aristocracy was inspired by John Milton's famous poem "Paradise Lost" and decided to paint a work that would be widely criticized. Since its exhibition, it has remained controversial to this day. "Satan Summoning His Legions" (1797) by Sir Thomas Lawrence has been criticized not only for its titanic depiction of Lucifer but also for an alleged connection between the painting and the Rothschild family, one of the most powerful and mysterious families in the world.
