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.

’Tis easy to flatter, and toilsome to praise.

This phrase is an adaptation of " It is easier and handier for men to flatter than to praise" by Jean Paul Friedrich Richter in his novel Titan: A Romance - cycle 34.

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.” Durable, pre-shrunk, and designed to withstand repeated washings while keeping its edge.
