So, to keep the blog going, I’ve moved it here to tumblr.</p> <p>I’ve already copied all the posts I made on my Wordpress blog to the new tumblr blog and hope to make fresh posts soon.</p> <p>So, if you’re interested, follow!</p> </blockquote>http://bygoneyears.tumblr.com/post/3518201032http://bygoneyears.tumblr.com/post/3518201032Sat, 26 Feb 2011 00:24:00 -0600<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lgzy4u3s0H1qa7jxxo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>The Charity of St. Elizabeth of Hungary by Edmund Blair Leighton, 1895</p>http://bygoneyears.tumblr.com/post/3436154783http://bygoneyears.tumblr.com/post/3436154783Mon, 21 Feb 2011 20:12:29 -06001890s1800s19th centurypainting<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lgzy17BODV1qa7jxxo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>A Stolen Interview by Edmund Blair Leighton, 1866</p>http://bygoneyears.tumblr.com/post/3436110827http://bygoneyears.tumblr.com/post/3436110827Mon, 21 Feb 2011 20:10:18 -06001860s1800s19th centurypainting<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lgzxz4MEfh1qa7jxxo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>In 1816 by Edmund Blair Leighton</p>http://bygoneyears.tumblr.com/post/3436090313http://bygoneyears.tumblr.com/post/3436090313Mon, 21 Feb 2011 20:08:59 -0600paintingvintage<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lgl4hwpOVR1qa7jxxo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>A Decorative Panel (Fragment) by Frank Eugene, 1890s</p>http://bygoneyears.tumblr.com/post/3284124001http://bygoneyears.tumblr.com/post/3284124001Sun, 13 Feb 2011 20:05:56 -06001890s1800s19th centuryvictorianvintage
