A Spanish Magazine, Magazine Fuera de Serie has First Lady Michelle Obama’s face superimposed over an 1800 female slave painting by French artist Marie-Guilhelmine Benoist on its August 2012 edition. Seated on a chair covered with the American Flag, right breast exposed, and wearing an Aunt Jemina headscarf, the image is part of a feature article examining Mrs. Obama’s popularity among the American public. This has sure raised some controversy as it is been persived as offensive and racist.
