Description Watson's trying to brighten Holmes' black mood with some August sunshine in their rooms at 221B Baker Street. Desktop!

I tried to homage all my favorite versions of Sherlock Holmes. Including the Wallpaper and Skull from Sherlock (BBC 2010), Watson and the chemistry set are straight from Granada/Jeremy Brett's Sherlock Holmes TV show (80's), Queen Victoria's portrait is a reference to a comedy skit called Holmes's Mood Swings from the Peter Serafinowicz Show (This is hilarious and on Youtube, go watch it), the bullet holes in the wall from the Robert Downy Jr. Movies, the infamous deer stalker, magnifying glass, and pipe from some of the original portrayals of Holmes, and of course as much as I could find in the stories. I feel like I've made a Where's Waldo! Things to look out for: Watson's Revolver, The Woman, The Dancing Men, Queen Victoria, The Moroccan Case, Persian Slipper's, Violin and Bow, a jack knife, a deerstalker, and a Skull (Friend of mine. Well, I say friend).

Feel free to download and use as a Desktop! Share the Sherlock Love.

Absolutely, completely gorgeous. I hope you consider selling prints. I would *love* to add this to my Sherlock Holmes art collection, properly printed.

I like all the little details you have included, it is one of those pieces of art which you can look at for ages and still notice new details.

The Deerstalker on the back of the chair, the picture of Queen Victoria... excellent work, and I am pleased you haven't gone and made it look like either the BC version or the RDJ version.

This is great and now my new Wallpaper!

That's brilliant. Good old Watson And Holmes looks so grumpy. And this style is very cool.
