Franz Von Stuck "The Wild Chase" 1889. Look carefully at the man in the pic and realize what year this was painted. The man in the pick is supposed to be Wotan, the Germanic version of Norse god Odin. I love the creepy black dogs. I have one that looks like that.

The Delaware Museum of Art in Wilmington has an excellent Pre-Raphaelite collection. It's well worth a visit even if you're just driving by on 95.

I'm out west in Canada so too far. Will visit if I am ever there, thanks. Victoria and Albert museum in London has a good collection of Pre-Rapaelite paintings and I have seen that one.
