I discovered some of my old calendars, many of which have been saved because of the artwork within them. So here are just a few of my absolute favorite paintings. Many thanks to my Victorian Art and Culture professor, Dr. Bassett (who is retired now), who introduced me to half of these.
The Lady of Shalot, by John William Waterhouse
Nocturne in Black and Gold, the Falling Rocket, by James Abbott McNeill Whistler
Fallen Monarchs, by William Bliss Baker (This one is at BYU's Museum of Art! Go see it if you get a chance!)
