You can see a picture of this painting on the floor of SK's office toward the back of my new book.

I didn't get it, for the very good reason that I hadn't read any of the DT books before seeing the film. My immediate thought was 'Clint Eastwood, but not'.
What that painting did do, though, was make Roland easier to imagine when I did get round to reading The Gunslinger.
