Do you know fantasy/witchcraft posters/prints well?

This is a long shot, and I’m pretty sure this thread’ll sink like a particularly dense and hydrodynamic stone, but I may as well ask anyway…I’m sure as hell not asking this on that site where you PAY people to give you information. I’m much too cheap for that. Although I’ll offer myself as a slave to anyone who can actually help me here.

I’m looking for a painting (I’m assuming it’s painted, anyway - I only had a brief look at a print of it). It’s dark-ish. It’s enlongated vertically (the print I saw had a ratio of height:width of about 5 or 6:1). It shows a sorceress-type woman, standing, holding a bowl sort of thing out of which is flowing (straight down) a reddish-orangeish liquid. There was another print next to it of the same dimensions and style, so it might be part of a set, or cropped from a larger painting. And that’s about all I can remember.

I was going to go into my justification for why I want a picture in a book or on the internet of this painting, and why I don’t just go buy the print I saw of it, but I realised that’s (a) boring, (b) not really necissary.

If you know the print/picture I’m talking about, or the artist who painted it, or anything like that, please reply. And if you don’t…well, I bet you feel kinda cheated for bothering to read this boring thread. Sorry about that.

Is this it? Circe It’s the one I thought of when I read your OP. If that’s not it, you’re on your own. :slight_smile:

Would it look something like this? http://www.primenet.com/~byoder/ameven.jpg

I think I’ve seen what you described by this artist, but I couldn’t find it on his web page, even though it’s a fairly common print of his. Go to an art store and ask to see a catalog of works by Alphonse Mucha.

Gaudere, that looks like it, thanks!

Although I’m almost sure the liquid being poured was red in the print I saw (along with a few other little differences), which makes me think it must’ve been a rip-off of this Waterhouse one. Ah well, now I’ve got the title, artist and a picture of it, so I’m happy. Thanks again.

…uh…and about that “I’ll be your slave” thing…of course that was all just a joke…ha ha and everything, right?
