Appendix L(IGHT): Vanitas, Lightly Annotated Later

Allegory of Charles I of England and Henrietta of France in a Vanitas Still Life
Anonymous Flemish painter, 1670s.


It was interesting to reflect on images and aesthetics that permeated my mind when thinking about the type of fantasy adventures I am drawn to or try to replicate. 

Here are some media that might have been responsible. I wanted to annotate it, maybe later, or perhaps better without comment?
