Guinevere - William Morris
In that vein, who's this sulkily apprehensive chick?

Well, you are right - but the painting is not in fact 'Guinevere', though this is a common mistake. A metaphorical bonus point if anyone can give the correct title.Quote:

Lok: You're right. It's La Belle Iseult, apparently.
Everyone else: La Belle Iseult isn't the sulky redhead - it's Lok's skinny brunette. I might have confused the apparent order of things here.
The sulky redhead that I posted is now up for identification. Here she is again.

I thought I was on the right track with Dante Gabriel Rossetti but to no avail.
After further search I discovered Anthony Frederick Augustus Sandys
The painting is Helen of Troy

St. Lukes,
If I had my druthers, I'd say it's time to toss us a bone. (?)
Thanks

Sorry... forgot I'd posted this.
Here's a portrait of our artist in the studio:

While her work is commonly categorized as part what is known as "outsider art" she has more than a passing knowledge of various precursors such as Cy Twombly, Jean Dubuffet, Australian Aboriginal art, Japanese kimono designs, graffiti, etc...

Alright, here's a clue. The artist does this for a hobby and is better known for something other than painting.
No takers?Quote:
