More nuts, and the rest
May 24 2012
Picture: Margaret Sutherland
Following my post yesterday about a controversial picture of South African President Jacob Zuma that shows his genitalia, a reader writes:
Further to your AHN entry "Nuts" (May 23,2012) President Zuma is not the only politician who recently received revealing artistic attention. So did Stephen Harper, the Prime Minister of Canada, although his office quickly pointed out that obviously it was not a realistic rendering, since "everyone knows that he is a cat person."
The picture has been sold for C$5000
