"On the calm black water where the stars are sleeping
White Ophelia floats like a great lily;
Floats very slowly, lying in her long veils..."
- Arthur Rimbaud
"Ophelia" (1852), John Millais
This is one of my favorite paintings.
Do any of you have any favorite paintings? I'd love to look them up.
upcoming contest alert: One of you can win a bottle of Advanced Face Firming Activator from Perricone MD. More on that next time...

Beautiful paintings. My favorite artist is Rene Magritte. All of his paintings are amazingly unusual.
Haha, one of my favourite paintings too :) As rubbish as people find them, I am actually obsessed with Mark Rothko's work.
That's seriously beautiful. Wow.
I don't have one favourite piece, I adore every one of Tracey Emins works though. That image of Ophelia is just so beautiful though

Love this particular one. And as cliched as it is, Gustav Klimt's work always does it for me!

I always wanted to redo the Ophelia in the water, but have her as dreaming, waiting.
Still searching for my favourite painter, but one I've always liked is Toulouse-Lautrec, hugely caring, talented, unique and intelligent:

I always imagined these two were newlyweds and he snuck in to paint the peaceful rest.
This painting is pretty
