Hi Shallot, I was going to make up a new thread with illustrations from classics; either children's books or novels. I love that painting; I adore the Pre-Raphaelites. It would be nice in my new thread. I thought this thread was just for author photos portraits and paintings, but I see that someone else posted an archway that is beautifully painted.

Maybe, you can post this lovely painting in my new thread, also. I will try and make that up tomorrow or next day. I have some great ideas for it and artwork.

[dramasnot6]

This is the painting that inspired a poem by Les Murray called the "Aboriginal Cricketer"(which,I hope none of you mind, I cited below).
http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p231/dramasnot6/abocriket.jpg

The Aboriginal Cricketer by Les Murray
Mid-19th century

Good-looking young man
in your Crimean shirt
with your willow shield
up, as if to face spears,

you're inside their men's Law,
one church they do obey;
they'll remember you were here.
Keep fending off their casts.

Don't come out of character.
Like you they suspect
idiosyncrasy of witchcraft.
Above all, don't get out

too easily, and have to leave here
where all missiles are just leather
and come from one direction.
Keep it noble. Keep it light.
