The Curwen Legacy

The talented Jason McKittrick brings us this portrait of Joseph Curwen from Lovecraft's "The Case of Charles Dexter Ward". There's so much to like about this. The work is an actual oil painting, not a textured print, and the custom plaque is a wonderful touch.

Great to see real painting used as a prop. Too often in film and TV you get 'aged' paintings that are all too obviously modern photographs that have been given the canvas treatment via photoshop. This is a gorgeous piece of work.
