I'm a big fan of art history and especially admire paintings of children with animals. Since I've collected so many on my pc, it would be nice to finally share them with you. 16th century style is the creepiest of all and therefore my favourite pieces of art come from that specific era. I'd recommend to dig through some Goya works as well.
Some of these historic paintings would also make a classy christmas card, don't you think ?
Not even mentioning how cool a massive detail print would look on a wall of a modernist home.
