Oh why do I never find the good contests before they are over *cries uncontrolably and beats head against keyboard*
I love the painting. The Accolade by Leighton if I am not mistaken. It hangs on my bedroom wall. I wish I could have found this before it ended, you must hold more, all I write about is chivalry I am told, that and knights. Congrats to the winners.
