Dramatic Art Prints
Dramatic art prints: paintings, prints and posters of battles, storms, executions, conflict and moments of high tension. The largest group is Jacques Callot's etching series The Large Miseries of War (1633). The collection also includes Rembrandt's The Storm on the Sea of Galilee (1633), Jacques-Louis David's Napoleon Crossing the Alps, Jean-Léon Gérôme's The Death of Caesar and The Christian Martyrs' Last Prayer, woodcuts by Hans Baldung Grien, William Blake's engravings for Dante and the Book of Job, etchings by Max Klinger and James Ensor, John Martin's Paradise Lost mezzotints, a Persian battle miniature, the Metropolis film poster (1927) and Soviet propaganda posters. These works suit rooms that can take a strong, dark image.
The paintings work as a single large piece in a living room or study; the Callot etchings work as a series along a hallway. All prints are museum-quality reproductions, available unframed or framed with low-glare acrylic glazing, with free shipping and import duties covered.

Two knights in scale armour face each other in a sunlit meadow below a hilltop castle. At left, seen from behind, one in a blue surcoat and pointed helm grips his sword hilt, a tall shield at his side; opposite, a dark-haired knight in a red surcoat bearing a gold heraldic beast holds his helmet under one arm. Beyond, a lady on a white horse and a figure in green wait near a form lying in the grass. From the 1917 edition of The Boy's King Arthur.
N. C. Wyeth (1882–1945) was an American painter and illustrator. Born in Needham, Massachusetts, he studied at the Massachusetts Normal Art School and the Eric Pape School of Art before joining Howard Pyle in the Brandywine Valley. His first commission was a 1903 Saturday Evening Post cover, and trips West fed a run of cowboy and Native American subjects. His illustrations for Scribner's Treasure Island (1911) paid for his house and studio at Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, and were followed by Kidnapped and The Last of the Mohicans. His work is held by the Brandywine Museum of Art, which preserves his studio, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
