Art of the week! In which we talk about the Man in a turban!

And as I write what happens to me as it happens, I decided to go away just after dinner time, or after I shave, still deciding again, decisions decisions... I need to draw something but I don't feel like it, and talking about it I have a wonderful painting to show to you guys, let's take a look at it!


This marvelous work was made by an artist that I like, the russian Ilya Repin, I do love this work by him, he does beautiful paintings, very talented indeed! I love the fashion of this man, wearing a nice turban he does! Took me far too long to finish this post as I was watching a walkthrough of Anno 1404, a game I plan on returning to soon, and this is it for today, sorry for the delay, thank you so much for being here, you are the best, see you again soon!
