Fredric Westin's "Lärjungarna på väg till Emaus"

Little sweetheart, I'm often on the prowl for artwork both for the album covers and their booklets. We've done booklets now for three of the nine albums. The one for Deux Anges was 48 pages (!) and a collection of black and white photos nearly as old as the medium itself, all taken at the turn of the 19th-into-20th century in pastoral Middle England. 

I saw something yesterday, also in the public domain, that very much intrigued me. I don't know if we'll use it somewhere or not but it's quite lovely. 

It's detail from Fredric Westin's "Lärjungarna på väg till Emaus" and it's here below. The larger work is darker, a night scene of shepherds. This is at the top of the painting, the light breaking through the night and an angel on watch. 

My thoughts flew to you immediately. How you brought such light and love into my own life! 

With all my love forever.
