Tristan et Iseult, illustrations by Anna and Elena Balbusso (photo source). The OP says, Italian frescoes of the early Reanissance well maybe, I can’t argue really, art history is totally not my strong point. But idk I would say Flemish rather than Italian, Bosch, Breugel? something like that.

(the only book ever that I bought for the illustrations 🙂

The first two glimpses at our holiday trip on the trial of the Arthurian Legend! ;))) Welcome to Tintagel, the supposed birthplace of our beloved Summer King! (I KNOW the first pic isn’t quite accurate then. If he really should’ve been there at all, he was only a babe… But I couldn’t resist… My phone has a photo taken in Pierrefonds showing Bradley James as Arthur from Merlin BBC for skin! (Photo credit: bleucitron) More pics from our journey are about to come – but there are choices to make, because they’re so many – and that’s a hard one.  It’ll take time.) Anyway, enjoy these for now! ;D

Series 5, Episode 7: Nimue – Merlin and Nimue Forge Excalibur

It’s hard to tell because this scene is so dark but I think these outfits could be rather splendid. I love yellow so Nimue’s cloak looks fantastic – it has a sparkly, iridescent quality that doesn’t come through well in the screenshots. And Merlin’s beautifully textured robe and cloak is also fantastic.

Hi, baes! Here are some of my most beloved souvenirs from our last holiday trip to GB on the trail of the Arthurian Legend! I included my bookshelf, because I already added some new items here. 😉 Please note the design of the Camelot castle shown on the towel I’ve bought! It looks really like Pierrefonds in France, don’t you agree? 😀 Some of the most dear items to me are the tapestry of “La belle dame sans merci”, which I bought in Winchester, and the, by Gustave Dore beautifully illustrated, issue of “The Idylls of the King” from Alfred Lord Tennyson. I bought british tea, stamps and some other stuff as presents for my family and friends at home too. Oh and look at that beautiful stained glass transfer of young Arthur pulling the sword off the stone… King Arthur’s Great Halls in Tintagel really were the death of me and my poor fangirl heart… <3<3<3 However: I’ll work on my photographs during the upcoming weeks, so be prepared to get some brit- or Arthurian-related sights every now and then. 😀

OH MY THIS IS AMAZING

SO MUCH BEAUTY
