Is this art you painted? It is wonderful.

It is. It's the work of Gustave DORÉ, from Dante's Divine Comedy. The Empyrean "Dante and Beatrice Gaze Upon the Highest Heaven" The White Rose, Dante's Paradiso Cante 31 by Gustave Dore 1900

One of my sons has a beautiful tattoo of it on his shoulder. Along with other things.

My will and my desire were both revolved,
As in a wheel in even motion driven,
By Love, which moves the sun and other stars.
"L'amor che muove il sole e l'altre stelle"

— Dante Alighieri (1265-1321)Paradiso, XXXIII(1321)
