This Flatter Praise graphic tee features surreal 16th-century woodcut art.
Flattery comes cheap. Everything else takes effort. And no one seems to be breaking a sweat. Getting through hollow adoration—or gritting your teeth through someone’s song-and-dance of self-congratulation—is bone-weary business. Even if you don’t say it aloud, this one's a nod to your secret commiserators.
Embrace the satire of one of Pantagruel’s Dreams with this vintage-fitted tri-blend tee, featuring a surreal woodcut creature and the biting line, “’Tis easy to flatter, and toilsome to praise.” Perfect for fans of surreal graphic tees, vintage-inspired art, and literary-inspired apparel, this shirt turns historical insight into wearable wit.
Pair it with other designs from our Pantagruel's Reverie Collection or explore some of our other historically inspired apparel to build a cohesive, art-inspired wardrobe. Ideal for gifting to art lovers, writers, or anyone who appreciates the humor and absurdity hidden in life’s small truths.
