GoKrida Illusion Portraits and Archangel Images

These images have been used as illustrations in the text-based interface used to access the universe of GoKrida from a web browser. Most or all of the portraits in this gallery seem to be details from well-known works of art, which are referenced in the entries below where they have been identified.

Notes:
"Streben will walk between." Since the Rim connects all the other realms, Streben probably has influence in every realm.

It's been suggested that this unidentified portrait is by Rembrandt, and that the subject may be Asian, based on the style of the collar and the facial features.

This web presentation grew out of Project Attention to Detail, originally a research project on the now-defunct GkWiki. The inspiration for this project came from a GoKrida forum post listing several links to some of the original images from which these details were taken, found from search engine queries of the image filenames.

Although many of the image and artist attributions on this site were available for ready inclusion in the wiki while it was online, not all of them had been added to that repository.

Sources for a number of images were discovered by browsing Google Image Search results based on the filenames of the images as given in GoKrida (similar to the research done for the forum post that inspired this project); more were found at Wikimedia Commons by browsing their images through category pages and search results based on the names of the artists discovered at Google. The web resource Tineye Reverse Image Search has also been useful, despite its currently small database.
