is this eric fischl? I remember our art prof discussing this peice last year.

Lately ive been fascinated with two of the habsburg dynasty ladies.

Sissi. Those hair diamons are stunning. She was very beautiful also.

Image

And I think Maria Theresa was beautiful too. She is apparently only 11 here, but i Think she looks like a teenager at least. From Wikipedia

I was about to ask you about your avatars. I might be getting a framed print copy of a Carrie Anne Baade to my collection.

Nice, but creepy in a horror theme sort of way.

This one is so gay. I like most things by Caravaggio. It's rumored he had developed a photographic darkroom technique which he used to create basic images and then painted on top of them, but it's all a mystery. Just like his presumed gayness.

I am so getting a large framed museum quality print of this to hang above my reading armchair. I couldn't care less that it's a religious painting, but the awesome colors and the respect this painting invokes can't be denied.

I'm not really an art enthusiast, but I'd like a print of these for my wall one day. I find them quite intriguing

After playing Castlevania again, I really love the artwork and illustrations by Ayami Kojima. They may not be classical art pieces but I find them quite exceptional. The images I found don't really do them justice.

^ My favourite one. Soma Cruz from Aria Of Sorrow if I'm not mistaken. :smile2

Castlevania artwork reminds me of El Greco's style.

Image

Image

Image

Image

And Chair, that's John William Waterhouse isn't it? Someone showed me his paintings a while ago and I liked them.

This is William Turner. I love this painting.

Image

Turner's style also influenced the "Black Rock Storm" which was painted exclusively for use in the background on a couple of "Lost" episodes. Never watched Lost myself but I love the painting nonetheless.
