@GuyLongworth Gustave Moreau "Galatea" c1896
Sea nymph Galatea, the fairest of all, loved mortal Acis. Cyclops Polyphemus had his lecherous eye on her, so crushed Acis' head with a stone. Galatea immortalised her beloved as a water sprite, whose blood would flow as a river forever more

"You see, there are still faint glimmers of civilization left in this barbaric slaughterhouse that was once known as humanity. Indeed that's what we provide in our own modest, humble, insignificant... oh, fuck it." -M. Gustave

"O Delion king, whose light-producing eye views all within, and all beneath the sky; whose locks are gold, whose oracles are sure, who omens good revealest, and precepts pure" --Orphic Hymn 34 to Apollo
The Chariot of Apollo, or Phoebus Apollo (c.1880), Gustave Moreau
Galatea, “ she who is milk-white “.
Galatea is also the name of Polyphemus's object
of desire in Theocritus's Idylls VI and XI
and is linked with Polyphemus again in the myth
of Acis and Galatea in Ovid's Metamorphoses.

Illustrator Nicolas Delort uses a scratchboard in a manner which evokes the engravings of #GustaveDoré. Here's his take on the classic Éowyn vs Witch-king encounter - A Woman's Courage. Yes, there are uncanonical details, but look at that dismount from the Witch-king... #Tolkien
Think I found my new favourite 17th c. painter.

@dr_revueltas thanks for following! Gustave Courbet @artistcourbet might strike your fancy 😉. Cheers, @andreitr
For a very hot morning, the Queen of the Night fan, painted by Gustave-François Lasellaz (1848-1910) and scattered with rose diamonds.
The tortoiseshell sticks are particularly lovely, delicately carved and pieced to evoke rays of moonlight.
