The 80-year-old Spanish woman responsible for what some are calling history's worst restoration of a work of art spoke out in the media on Wednesday to defend her actions. Cecilia Gimenez, a loyal parishioner at the church in Borja, Saragossa Province, had taken it upon herself to restore Ecce Homo, a 19th century mural of Jesus Christ, according to Le Monde. Witness the devastating results below. "We've always fixed everything ourselves in this church. The priest asked me to do it, he knew. How could I have done it without his permission?" Mrs. Gimenez told Spanish television, according to France TV Info. A professional team of art restorers is going to examine the mural in the next few days in order to determine what can be salvaged.

Ya gotta admit, she butchered it pretty badly. What'd she use, crayons?
She put the effort into it that it deserved.

Ultimately this will generate more thoughts and feelings in support of a "religious" idol / icon. Cui bono?
