After watching several recorded episodes of Masterpiece Theatre this past weekend (one of my favorite television series), I went online to look at their website to see what shows to expect for the spring.  During my search I noticed a result for the curiously titled, Silhouette Masterpiece Theatre.  The site features artwork by Wilhelm Staehle, consisting of vintage paintings and drawings set as backgrounds for silhouettes of people and animals with clever quotes and descriptions.  Several of the pieces literally made me crack up laughing, I loved the dark humor and his unexpected interpretations of common scenarios and sayings.  For more of his work, check out his portfolio site as well.
