What I'm saying is that although the artist was likely just trying to capture a pretty scene, they created a graphic time capsule which trapped the limitations, fears, irrational prejudices and mind-bending stagnation of the soul which was in effect at the time. So I'll keep my commentary to a minimum. Just think of these as being pretty pictures.
