Victorian Druids
Aug. 17th, 2011 12:05 pmRealizing all of my ideas for Steampunk outfits are nature-inspired, decided to re-visit depictions of druids in the 18th-19th c.
Found this:Wikipedia entry on Druids (meh), but has some pics from Victorian era
And these:
A Druidess 1868, by Alexandre Cabanel, and The Druidess, by Armand LaRoche (19th c)
This is my favorite, but is unfortunately not available:
A Young Druidess, by Carl Haag (1878) This is an etching based on his original, a painting. Cannot find the painting anywhere online, nor at which museum it is located.
And, not like the one in the etching but still kinda cool, a laurel wreath. (Thanks Danabren!)
