More seriously, this is a common symptom of migraine - aura, for some patients, are (yes that's the correct tense) enhanced when looking at brightly coloured or intricate materials, which would include paintings. I certainly can't look at geometric patterns when suffering the beginnings of an attack, they make me very nauseous. Apr 25 02, 8:57 AM

Roxanne33 says: 'Stendhal Syndrome' is an illness described by an Italian professor in 1987 as an acute psychotic reaction among art-loving tourists. The syndrome was named after the French writer Stendhal, who described 'deja vu and disquiet' after looking at works of art in Florence in the 19th century.
