SUNDAY MATINEE MUSIC VIDEO! “Dumb Angel (live)” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1adaRT-TVpU A 2002 live take of my surrealistic pop song that I wrote after a dream that included Brian Wilson, Lewis Carroll, and Elvis Presley. In my dream they all made an appearance where I grew up in the backwater Appalachian village of Avis PA.

Mémoire musique White Rabbit
Une chanson souvenir, qui fut interprétée à Woodstock en 1969. C’est un hymne psychédélique emblématique écrit par Grace Slick. La chanson utilise l’imagerie d’Alice au pays des merveilles de Lewis Carroll pour dresser un parallèle direct entre les aventures hallucinatoires du livre et la consommation de drogues psychotropes, reflétant la culture de l’exploration de la conscience des années 1960.
Jefferson Airplane – White Rabbit

Allegorical English School painting (by an unknown artist, ca. 1610) of Queen Elizabeth I at old age. (Location of original painting: Corsham Court, Wiltshire, England, UK)
Henry Holiday’s back cover illustration (1876) to Lewis Carroll’s "The Hunting of the Snark".
I discovered that in 2010:

Jackie Ford, Nancy Harding, Sarah Gilmore, "Re/searching leadership: A critique in two agonies and nine fits", 2022
That paper about leadership also is an excellent contribution to the interpretation of Lewis Carroll and Henry Holiday's "The Hunting of the Snark". I added it to my Snark reading list (https://snrk.de/papers-and-books/#Leadership).

1864-02-08: To #RichardBethell (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Bethell,_1st_Baron_Westbury), the #ThirtyNineArticles were "meagre and disjointed extracts" from #ThomasCranmer's #FortyTwoArticles (https://snrk.de/meagre-and-disjointed-extracts/). #LewisCarroll (the Deacon #Dodgson) objected especially to the 42th article in the Forty-TwoArticles.

On the left side you see a detail from an illustration by #HenryHoliday to #LewisCarroll’s tragicomedy "#TheHuntingOfTheSnark". I marked four possible references by Henry Holiday to a painting by #WilliamSidneyMount.
On the right side you see William Sidney Mount’s painting "The #BonePlayer" (1856) in mirror view.

There are letter-like patterns in #HenryHoliday's back cover illustration to #LewisCarroll's tragicomedy "#TheHuntingOfTheSnark" (https://snrk.de/snarkhunt/#BackCover). Is this #asemic art? Or are these just some lines used by Henry Holiday to draw the foam on the waves?

@snark -- Henry Holiday’s references to Gheeraerts are also mentioned (without specifying a source) in Marysa Demoor’s article "Een culturele brexit? Grotesk!" (2022-05-07, https://www.standaard.be/cnt/dmf20220505_95919388) in the Belgian "De Standaard" (@[email protected] and @[email protected]).

Illustration by #HenryHoliday to #LewisCarroll's "#TheHuntingOfTheSnark" (1876).
The "Baker" (hero in "The Hunting of the Snark") is visiting his uncle, who is sitting in his bed. The uncle (who has five fingers, but otherwise looks like Yoda and wears a nightgown which also looks like Yoda's long shirt) is describing the Snark to the baker: https://snrk.de/snarkhunt/#193
Outside of the window: Some of the Baker's 42 boxes.

«He had bought a large map representing the sea,
Without the least vestige of land:
And the crew were much pleased when they found it to be
A map they could all understand.»#LewisCarroll’s #TheHuntingOfTheSnark (1876) has been published “with nine #illustrations by #HenryHoliday”. But there are ten illustrations. I suggest that the #OceanChart (aka #Bellman’s #map) is Carroll's design, who then commissioned a #typesetter with making the #PrintingPlate.

@ulaulaman -- Penso che non sia stato #HenryHoliday a creare quella mappa. Probabilmente l'ha progettato #LewisCarroll. E un tipografo l'ha trasformata in una lastra da stampa (https://snrk.de/page_the-ocean-chart/).

My most important Snark finding (#ReligSnark):
In his #illustration (https://snrk.de/snarkhunt/#561) to fit#8 of #LewisCarroll's #tragicomedy "#TheHuntingOfTheSnark" (1876), #HenryHoliday hid a pictorial reference to the print "Faiths Victorie in Romes Crueltie" (published by Thomas Jenner, c. 1630). The attached image shows
(1) the print (containing a depiction of #ThomasCranmer's burning) with a comment from a curator of the #BritishMuseum and
(2) my image comparison. -
I merged the following_accounts.csv list from @snark (@ mastodon.art) into the following_accounts list of @snarkology (@ zirk.us).
Mastodon.art is a fine instance for *creative* artists, but my impression is that zirk.us is the better instance for *analyzing* art and literature.
Yet, I do have creations: #FirefoxThemes (https://snrk.de/firefox-snark-theme/). Among these #themes, https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/dark-snark-2/ is my favorite.

@Sophie -- As for lace, you perhaps also will like the portraits of #MarcusGheeraertsTheYounger. It seems that Henry Holiday liked them when he illustrated #LewisCarroll’s "#TheHuntingOfTheSnark".
