Lullaby To An Anxious Child

Description

First picture of 2013! Folquet, a French troubadour, whose power with words and lack of reflection has lead to all types of tragedy.
The title comes from a song by Sting which I found very fitting with regard to Folquet's grim back-story [link] . It is part of a beautiful winter concert in Durham cathedral, well worth seeing in my opinion.

He looks so great in that colour, and I love how you painted the halo of light around the candles, it makes the room and scene look so warm compared to the snow outside.  What happens if he plays and sings when no one is around?
