    The artist forgetting something in a painting called The Library.

    Now, someone is going to respond that each painting is worth thousands of words.

    It was either collecting too many paintings or cats. He chose paintings.

    If you have enough paintings, you actually don’t need walls at all.

    Paintings are more expensive than wallpaper and easier to change – what’s there not to like for people who have too much money?

    He owns a small fortune in frames. The pictures were cut out of magazines.

    When the walls start to bend in, perhaps you have too many paintings. Just saying..

    The shrink called it OCD. Nigel called it a clever way to avoid having to paint the walls again at the behest of Bertha, aka the wife from hell.

    As I posted yesterday, the GoComics Moderator has deleted all my comments here since 6/5, including the prior one yesterday. The Moderator has informed me that, including URLs in my comments, flags them as spam. So, until the Moderator deletes it, the 6/5 comment will be the last such informational comment by me found here. Perhaps prior ones will remain after the Moderator deletes it. I tried to improve the enjoyment of this strip. Sorry it didn’t work out.

    Apparently GC prefers political rants to fill up their boards, as opposed to actual informative ones. Thanks for your efforts and contributions.

    Mr. Seegersen billed himself as a librarian for the illiterate. No reading necessary.

    Insulation was more decorative than functional in 1885.

    The 1886, roughly jumbo envelope size Librarian Segerstéen in his home is discussed in the Career and Paintings sections of the Johan Krouthén English Wikipedia page. If you click the image in the page’s Gallery section, More details will take you to the title URL I used to point to in prior comments.

    If you want other than Wikipedia info about the artist, the first Externa linker link in his Swedish (Svenska) Wikipedia page points to a Swedish website devoted to him, and the Introduction to Maria Tsaneva’s Johan Krouthen: 131 Paintings and Drawings online book (id=4SdSCAAAQBAJ at Google Books) has English info.

    Again, a larger strip image is shown by clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #2230 (June 25, 2019) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment.
