Grabbed #5 - I've always loved The Accolade, and your icon catches the mood very well! :-)

Thank you! It's one of my all-time favourite paintings in the whole wide world. 8-D

I love it too. I actually have a poster of it hanging over my bed :D

Do you really? My first encounter with this painting was a poster displayed in a store. I stopped dead in my tracks and stared at it for so long, my brother had to forcibly drag me away...;-P

Yes, I think I first came across it online and got to the point where I just had to have it. lol I really like all the other paintings by this artist too.

Me too! I think his style is similar to Lord Frederick Leighton as well as Waterhouse. (both of which I like as well!)
