I love all of those- but my favourite is the extraordinarily haunting The Cemetery Gates-

The Abbey in the Oakwood really stood out the most to me. I don't know why, but cool stuff

There's another CDF painting which depicted some tombs under a moonlit sky. I don't recall the name, but it's really good. I like everything I've seen by him. I like him better than Ensor, Ropps, and other Symbolist artists. He was clearly influenced by the PreRafealites.
