I love this song. It's just the thing to listen to as you curl up in front of the fire with a copy of Sie Unaussprechlichen Kulten.

What are the pics at 1:05 and 1:07 where are those from?

[SharkDeschain]

@MrDevonlewis I'm not entirely sure what 2 pictures you are asking about. But the one picture that is for sure at 1:05 is by Francisco Goya. The one after that, of the giant, is also by him. The one before those two is a reproduction of the painting at 1:05 done by French artist Francois Launet. Hope I got the pictures right! ^_^'

[MrDevonlewis]

@SharkDeschain Im soory, i meant 1:05 and 1:03.

[SharkDeschain]

@MrDevonlewis Ah. Well, the one at 1:03 is by Francois Launet. The one at 1:05 is the original painting done by Francisco Goya. The name of the painting is "Saturn Devouring His Son".

What's the original here? I am afraid that I am more familiar with lovecraftian lore than I am with anglophone christmas caroling....

@TheMindcontrolled The Little Drummer Boy if I'm not mistaken.

[brenco]

What about the one at 0:25?

[SharkDeschain]

@brenco An artist named John Coulthart. It seems hes done a number of Lovecraftian pictures.

[TheYankeeWitch]

Whose glorious art is this at 1:43?

[SharkDeschain]

@TheYankeeWitch An artist named Nicholas Roerich. Lovecraft enjoyed his work. The painting after that one at 1:43 is also by Roerich.
