    The original is by Gauguin. Don't have time to look it up, 'the white horse'.

    I have so many. 'Nevermore' is one, the light and the symbolism:

    'Ta Matete', stylish, inspired by a Javanese frieze (note the wayang puppet postures)

    While googling Ta Matete I found a Ta Matete fan as well!:happy: This fan collector wants it of course.:greedy:

    'Siesta', nice tranquil mood:

    'Les Alyscamps', of one of my favourite spots in Arles:

    'Vision after the Sermon (Jacob Wrestling with the Angel)', metaphysic or pure magic:
