I like Bruegel. I have a print of Hunters in the Snow that takes pride of place in wherever I happen to be living at the time.
(Sorry, tried to post both an image and a link, but just got pages of gobbledygook)

The Princes in the Tower by John Everett Millais.  "The Princes in the Tower" is an expression frequently used to refer to Edward V of England and Richard of Shrewsbury, Duke of York. The two brothers were the only sons of Edward IV of England and Elizabeth Woodville surviving at the time of their father's death in 1483. Then 12 and 9 years old, they were lodged in the Tower of London by the man appointed to look after them, their uncle, the Lord Protector: Richard, Duke of Gloucester. This was supposed to be in preparation for Edward's coronation as king. However, Richard took the throne for himself and the boys disappeared.( I have resized this picture but it has stayed the same size!) |

Rubens is my favourite painter. Those paintings are massive, my pic doesn't do them justice and reflect the size (my camera's battery was running down and I could only take a couple of shots |
