"The Fair Widow" was painted by Sylvio Firena and is a famous work of art. Sylvio was a student of history and based his painting on the death of Faen. The painting purports to be that of Aerdrie Faenya the elven matriarch, though it is well known that Sylvio had an art student and paramour sit for the portraiture.
The work was presented to a elven nobleman but was famously rejected by the recipient. Reportedly he called it the picture of a human strumpet gussied up with folk ears.
It is considered a masterpiece. Its subject and style have been imitated many times over. The original hangs in the Hall of Art at the Heralapix of Ald Ciula.
