Wow, that final photo is exactly like the back of "The Memory of Trees" album. I also see inspiration into the Caribbean Blue music video throughout.

Thank you so much for sharing these. Wonderful to see. The influence on the videos and artwork for Memory of Trees and Shepherd Moons is so strong!

Good spot, the guy is called Parrish, Enya was born in the 2 largest Parish areas of Ireland. Maybe there can be a connection too

That's the same image as on the cover of the Moody Blues album "The Present" from 1983!

I went to a maxfield Parrish exhibit and the moody blues were up there with Enya hehe plus Elton John … seems Parrish works were inspirational to many artists
