olde_fashioned: (Waterhouse -- The Lady of Shalott)
[personal profile] olde_fashioned
Having recently become interested in making desktop wallpapers as well as icons, here is my first public attempt: John William Waterhouse's The Lady of Shalott. Fans of Anne of Green Gables will recognize the poetry. ;-)

And I couldn't resist making an icon to go with it:

This is a link to the full-length poem by Tennyson.

As always, comment/credit if taking, and enjoy! :-)

Lovely! I love that painting and the poem, and the musical version by Loreena McKennitt! Yay!

And I took the wallpaper and icon... Woo for forgetting to mention that.
