Photo of Swansea UK Police Arresting Drunk Man Likened to Renaissance Art -
'Put It In The Louvre' The shot, by Dimitris Legakis, also evoked French Romanticism for some. The Guardian 25 DEC 2023 ![]() Image was taken just after midnight on last Friday before Christmas, also known as Black Eye Friday for its drunken revelry... ![]() ![]() ![]() A photograph of police arresting a drunken man outside a Swansea takeaway on “Black Eye Friday” has gone viral, with some comparing it to “a boozy Renaissance painting” and others seeing the influence of French Romanticism. One admirer of the shot, by Dimitris Legakis, thought it merited a spot alongside the Mona Lisa and the Venus de Milo: “Wind Street. Swansea. Put it in the Louvre.” The picture was taken at about 12.30am on the last Friday before Christmas, an evening so notorious for alcohol-fuelled carousing that it has come to be known on our drink-soaked island as Mad Friday or Black Eye Friday. ![]() It shows three police officers in hi-vis jackets sitting on top of a man outside a Swansea takeaway – one talking into his radio as the other two try to handcuff their suspect. In front of them, lying casually on the floor with a cigarette in one hand and his phone in the other, is a young man taking a pouting selfie. Behind is a young blonde girl with her tongue out, giving the v-sign. Next to her, breaking through the fourth wall by looking straight at Legakis’s lens, is the only sober-looking figure not in uniform, who clutches one of the police officers’ helmets. ![]() Comparisons were made between this image and the Raft of Medusa by Théodore Géricault
