The work of American surrealist artist bill Stoneham “Hands Resist Him” (“the Hands resist him”) has become a highly resonant picture. The artist painted the picture in 1972. He took my picture as a baby, where, as a young boy, was at home with her sister. The picture Stonham is a boy, and in the yard with him the doll is the height of a girl. In the background behind the door, pressed the children’s hands.

First, the painting went to an American critic, then to the actor, and then lost. Picture randomly found a young family and hung in the bedroom of the child. The first night the girl came to my parents ‘bedroom, shouting that the children in the film fight”. After a couple of nights father established in the baby’s room camera with motion sensor. At night the camera worked 4 times. From the picture hastened to get rid of. A few years later at auction, where the painting was exhibited, many complained that after viewing it they became ill.

The author himself described “Hands Resist Him”: the door separates the world of dreams and reality, the doll is a guide to the world of dreams. Hands behind the door – the alternative of life or opportunities.

2. “The crying boy”, Giovanni Bragolin

A painting by the Italian artist Giovanni Bragolin “the Crying boy” has a very bad reputation. It is believed that the master painted the portrait of his son. But the child couldn’t cry, so the father was periodically lit his face matches. Fire child was afraid of more than anything. Of course, the boy’s mind was broken and he allegedly shouted words: “burn you myself!”
In 1960-70-ies among the working class in the UK was a very popular painting “the Crying boy”. All of them were sold in 50 000 copies.

The notoriety of the painting appeared in 1985, the year after the publication in the newspaper “Sun” article of a woman who claimed that after a severe fire of her house, survived only a cheap reproduction of “the Crying boy”. Then there were several more such evidence. The hype surrounding the “cursed” paintings grew at a snowball. The newspaper in the fight for readers only was sensationalized. In the end, the fire Department issued a statement that the picture is not to blame for the fires. The fact that it does not burn, can be explained by the high density of paper, and, given the huge number of sold portraits, it is not surprising that some of them were in the homes where the fires occurred.

3. “Female rain”, Svetlana Telets

The picture of the “Female rain”, written by the artist Svetlana Taurus in 1996, also inspires some hostility to those who accidentally see it. The canvas thrice bought and as many times returned back to the artist. Svetlana herself told me that drew the picture for only 5 hours, like someone took her hand.

The first customer hung up “Woman of rain” in the bedroom, but two weeks later called back to the artist with a request to pick up the painting. Allegedly, she has a sense of presence in the apartment of someone else. The next buyer was faced with the fact that the woman from the picture he was dreaming, depriving the rest. The man returned the painting, and even money-back not taken. A third client found out about the notoriety of the paintings, he considered himself a man is not superstitious and bought it. At first everything was fine, but the man gave no rest to a white woman’s eyes, headaches, insomnia. In General, now “Woman of rain” is from his Creator.
