Acrylic paints on 16x20 inch stretched canvas.

This depicts a scene which took place at War of the Wings II in October, 2007. Baron Mark of Sacred Stone presented a large pair of white, feathered wings to the sweet Samantha, daught of Baron Angus and Baroness Nastasiia of Black Diamond, thus ending a war for possession of the wings, and allowing it to become a congenial contest of arms. I have fictionalized the scene by adding the coast and palace of Atlantia in the background. Atlantia exists in another reality, where the Middle Ages still live. So far as I was able, I painted the people in the clothing and accessories actually worn by them at the event. The pavilion is trimmed in the colors of Black Diamond.
