Christmas revelers in New York City were shockingly greeted with painting of a crucified Santa Claus outside St. Patrick’s Cathedral on Sunday. Robert Cenedella’s piece shows Santa hanging on a cross with wrapped presents at his feet. Cenedella had moved the painting to Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, outside the cathedral, after it was removed from a Manhattan gallery, the New York Post reported. “It’s a disturbing image — that’s the bottom line,” Theresa Manly, a North Carolina native, told the New York Post. All he’s doing is being a grinch.”New York City Councilman Joe Borelli, R-Staten Island, said Cenedella’s painting threatened to ruin Christmas.
