#vasnetsov

I've wanted to rip off Vasnetsov's paintings for some Silmarillion fanart for a long time now. His fairy tale works are very much neoromantic mess and i am sure are problematic in a list of ways! Perfect for Tolkien. Last October i used Мёртвая царевна for a small Fëanor resting next to his mother's body (did not turn out too well, messed up Míriel's bed big time). This year i think i did better, using The Frog Princess for Lúthien dancing! Though i thought, if i try adding Daeron or any background i am very likely to mess things up! So i decided to just keep it the way it is. The leaves were long, the grass was green, The hemlock-umbels tall and fair, And in the glade a light was seen Of stars in shadow shimmering. Tinúviel was dancing there To music of a pipe unseen, And light of stars was in her hair, And in her raiment glimmering.
