I don't know if this was ever posted up here in the past or not, but I stumbled on to this painting and wondered if anyone has ever seen it before?

Looks like a Pre-Raphaelite painting, by Rossetti or Hunt or one of those guys. Or perhaps it's a Stevie fan copying the Pre-Raph image & style.

The real painting before someone photoshopped the pic of it in the above post, and yes David, it's Ghirlandata by Rossetti :D Hope you are doing well David and are enjoying good music!

Wow. Looks as if some Stevie fan put Stevie's face in it. (Who else would bother?) Cool. Stevie fans are creative the same way Stevie is creative:

Do you know everything!? :laugh: You're like an encyclopedia or something!No, no. these Pre-Raph paintings are very popular among the Stevie fan contingent, for whatever reason.

Rossetti's sister Christina wrote: "Beauty without the beloved/Is like a sword through the heart." That's just the kind of atmosphere Stevie conjures!

You really think Stevie fans would flock to the woman who wrote...

"Yet if you should forget me for a while/And afterwards remember, do not grieve?"
