ABSTRACT
There are a series of canvasses by Dutch painters from the 15th and 16th centuries that deal with "The extraction of the stone of madness", the most characteristic and well-known is the one painted in 1480 by Hieronymus Bosch "El Bosco". This writing arises from the analysis of the multiple comments that have been made on it by art critics, psychiatrists, philologists and art historians; hence the convenience of a neurosurgical view of this painting and several other ones contemporary to it.REFERENCES
