JS Le Fanu and Godfried Schalken

You may have noticed, moreso in "Green Tea" than in the other two Le Fanu stories we read this week, references to "Schalken paintings." I thought I'd post a few of them - the color schemes that Schalken uses in these paintings do, for me, anyway, really evoke the mood and tone, and even the dominant color scheme of "Green Tea," what with all the eerie backlighting that Le Fanu describes, and the red hues of things.
