Johnnie Liliedahl: Soldier's Return

WRITE A REVIEW

After the painting by Marcus Stone. Marcus Stone is known for his paintings of women in beautiful garden settings. This subject is particularly poignant and more emotional than most of his work. It was chosen to illustrate how beautifully the academic grisaille underpainting renders both stone and flesh in the sundial and the girl.
