This is a painting that features a lake called Lake Avernus. (There’s a great article that talks about this place. Link)
Look at the rock pillars?
They look like the ones in the Rise of the Titans location (but just more rounded). Both places are also surrounded by mountains, and the lakes look about to be the same shape.
This is so cool, but apparently a lake is considered the “Earth’s eye”. The water is the eye, while the brush/trees/whatever surrounding it are it’s eyelashes. You know there’s been a whole lot of eye symbols in Trollhunters, and this lake kind of does look like an eyeball.
Lake Avernus is actually part of Greek mythology, because this lake was believed to be the entrance to the underworld.
Oh my gosh, what if this lake is an entrance to somewhere? And what if it’s an entrance to that new market we saw in the trailer?
P.S. This lake is located in Italy. This might be where the gang are, but I’m not sure. Either way, this place is beautiful!
“You forget– I’m the lady of the lake. I’m made of water. Now everything’s Flowing away from us…” -Merlin Movie 1998
“The Lady of The lake” (Commission) Medium: Watercolors, color pencils, acrylics, pastel and inks on Arches paper.
After a lot of sketching and ideas dropped I finally finished my first Lady of The Lake piece, she is my favorite character from the Arthurian cycle and its legends; one of the interpretations of this character that most captivated me, was the one of the 1998 Merlin’s Hallmark Film, after many years, it was time to do mine, I hope you like it.
