William Bush SQUEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mar 23, 2010 17:19



I've always maintained that JMW Turner must have been some kind of psychic and a Bush fan before CSF was even born. Now, after I've finished reading THIS book about him, I'm more certain than ever, and I have evidence to back it up:

Temeraire-Chichester-Caudebec )

painting, people: william bush, fandom: hornblower, aos: general

Isn't it? It's one of the reasons why I love Turner so much.

Hehe, that really is a little scary.
Do we know if CSF was inspired by these pictures?

The second one is very beautiful, btw, I hadn't seen it before.

That would seem the logical thing, wouldn't it? I love the thought of CSF choosing significant details from the paintings...

Me toooo but then that would just debunk my Turner-is-psychic theory.

Actually I have another crazy theory that Turner actually "knew" Bush but that's that's completely in another realm of AU and craziness all together. XD

It really is amazing. The greatest hits of William Bush in art.

I find it wonderful that even though the canon avenues have been exhausted, there is still many things related/connected to Bush out there in the world that can surprise me and give me a warm comforting feeling. =)
