#PictureOfTheDay Another Ingoldsby Legend illustration by Arthur Rackham: “A Nurse’s Story – The Hand of Glory”. Happy #Halloween! #Inktober
#PictureOfTheDay Paul Frederick Berdanier‘s 1935 "The Witches’ Sabbath a la Mode" is one of the illustrations he did for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch and it’s not unique in its genre: a war cartoon, semi-propagandistic, using mythological and fantastical themes. #Inktober
#PictureOfTheDay James Torrance did this in 1901 for Sir George Douglas’ Scottish fairy tale “Witches of Delnabo”, in which the farm of D. is proportionally divided between 3 heirs and their wives are tempted to find a way to end their poverty. #Inktober
#PictureOfTheDay Jean Veber, a French caricaturist who worked in newspaper like Gil Blas, L’Assiette au Beurre and Le Rire, did this "Les Sorcières ou Tandem" in 1900. #Inktober
#PictureOfTheDay Luis Ricardo Falero, The witch painted on a tambourine (1882). Duke of Labranzano, between 1878 and 1882 he painted a whole series of flying witches on broomsticks. #Inktober
#PictureOfTheDay Théophile Steinlen, "Metamorphose" (1893). He was a Swiss painter operating in France within the circle of the famous Chat Noir in Bohémienne Montmartre and author of the famous Chat Noir poster. #Inktober
#PictureOfTheDay The illustration of a thistle (Chardon, in French) by a French artist called Grandville in his Fleurs Animées, which is super weird and was written around 1847 by Taxile Delord and Alphonse Karr. No, I do not know what’s going on here: don’t ask. #Inktober
#PictureOfTheDay Probably the most famous illustration by Florence Harrison, a Pre-Raphaelite illustrator who worked on fairies, illustrating for instance "The Fairy Ring". #Inktober
#PictureOfTheDay An illustration by Alice B. Woodward, who illustrated both children’s book and scientific publications (and in the Victorian Era the difference was slim, sometimes). #Inktober
#PictureOfTheDay An illustration by #WarwickGoble to the Fairy Poetry Book: he specialized in the exotic, particularly Japanese and Indian themes, but he was also influential in shaping our modern imagination around fairies and flower fairies. #Inktober
#PictureOfTheDay One of Rackham’s illustrations to the story of Sir Rupert the Fearless of the Ingoldsby Legends, a collection of legends and poetry by English clergyman Richard Harris Barham and signed under the pseudonym of Thomas Ingoldsby of Tappington Manor. #Inktober
#PictureOfTheDay Richard Doyle's "Fairy Ring". There’s a direct connection between mushrooms and fairies in folklore, because of the way mushrooms are sometimes organized into a circle: it's a witches’ circle in French, and but the Middle English term is elferingewort. #Inktober
#PictureOfTheDay An illustration to "The Rhyming Mushroom Book for Children", by Signe Aspelin (1881-1961). She was a Swedish illustrator, teacher and poet, and very little is known about her. #Inktober
#PictureOfTheDay One of #BeatrixPotter’s illustrations of mushrooms (although she would prefer fungi). Her work as a mycologist could not be published because of her sex and because she didn’t go to University (again, because of her sex). #Inktober
#PictureOfTheDay "Mushroom Mother and her Children", by Edward Okun (around 1906), a Polish #ArtNouveau painter. The title underneath reads “Wo Die Buchen Dämmern”, 'Where The Beeches Dawn', and the illustration appeared on Jugen #45. #Inktober
