Favorite paintings

[Rusalka]

Another one from the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, only this one is a sister. Evelyn de Morgan is one of my favorite mythological theme painters.

Earthbound:



Medea



Hero Holding a Beacon for Leandros:

(the colors are really too bright in this digital version but this was the biggest image I could find)


Edit: I can't believe I forgot to post Eos:


(which looks more like the Temperance card in the Major Arcana)

[Alkman]

Working on the Circe theme (who is of course Medea's aunt ) Here's my favorite representation of her; by Waterhouse. Waterhouse actually has three Circe paintings, one of them more famous than the rest but this one is not it.

Circe Invidiosa:

[trinacria]

Don't know if it was mentioned but I thoroughly enjoy THE SCHOOL OF ATHENS. Amazing, amazzzing, work of art.
