More about Goodfellas
Goodfellas appeared in the movie of the same name. It was reportedly painted by the mother of the writer, Nicholas Pileggi. The image was actually based on a photo from the November 1978 issue of National Geographic. The painting depicts a man with two dogs on a boat.
The man in the painting is a retired banker named John Weaving. The two dogs are called Brocky and Twiggy. Weaving lived on a houseboat on the river Shannon. He was a navigational consultant, handyman and an eco-crusader. He passed away in 1987. A bronze bust of him was erected beside the harbour in Terryglass.

$194.00 – $1,076.00A Rembrandt is a must-have in any personal collection – he was one of the greatest painters and printmakers in Europe, and the most significant in Dutch history.
If you love detailed paintings, Belshazzar’s Feast is a great example. The artist used distinctive features on the main character – from his gold and silver costume, to the chains and turban as adornments. The supporting characters lack the same extravagance, but the details on their clothing and headpieces and the objects on the table contribute to the story.
This a great conversation piece especially among art lovers who are fascinated by paintings that tell a story and convey emotions.Select optionsQuick View -
