Japanese fart scrolls prove that human art peaked centuries ago
Approximately 200-400 years ago, an unknown artist during Japan's Edo period created what is easily the most profound demonstration of human aesthetics ever committed to parchment. I am referring to He-Gassen a.k.a. 屁合戦 a.k.a. "the fart war." In this centuries-old scroll, women and men blow each other off the page with typhoon-like flatulence.
