Just a reminder that - now that they've been professionally scanned and digitally stored - the original art for each of these two recent images of G.K. Chesterton is available for purchase.
Astonished at the World and Where Ought I be?

Astonished at the World is an original oil painting on wood panel and is 18" x 24". Where Ought I Be is charcoal on Canson paper and is 12" x 16". You can read more about these in previous posts, below.
These are listed on Fine Art America for $1200 and $500, respectively... but I'm not averse to a little good-natured dickering. Baby needs a new set of sable rounds!
Astonished at the World has already been immortalized as a book jacket. Think of how well this would fill the space now occupied by that print of the poker-playing dogs. Imagine the delighted admiration of your Chestertonian friends as you display the original over your mantle, or at your next meeting! Imagine a more shallow and venal sales pitch! Just imagine it!
