Link #i have a three hour exam to study for #but i’m about to do a full art analysis on this picture #where to start? #the helmet that sprouts angel wings? #the stringed shoes? #the bare calves? #the light mustache above his upper lip? #the ghastly monks presumably praying on the background? #the fact that he appears to be standing before a grave #why don’t his arms have armor?? #why does the woman have a scarf wrapped around her body? #where did he get the wings? are they from a swan? #why is his hand resting on the blade of the axe? #what is happening? #who picked his outfit?? #i have so many questions and so many concerns #arthuriana #galahad
