The Ogres

I was inspired by the song Les Ogres by the french artist Solann, so now I have one song in a loop in my head and a very red illustration 🧍...

(BTW, here's a LINK to the story this weird detail originates from. The page is in French, so you may have to use auto-translate)

Fantasy sights: William Heath Robinson

William Heath Robinson was an English cartoonist and illustrator of the early 20th century.

He did various Shakespearian illustrations - he most notably illustrated Twelfth Night, in such a way to convey its dark, eerie, ghostly and oniric tones beyond the comedy aspects...

And he also did some very famous illustrations for A Midsummer Night's Dream

Robinson also did an illustrated version of "The Pantagruel and the Gargantua", sometimes grouped together as William Heath Robinson's The Rabelais.

William Heath Robinson was also very as a fairytale illustrator - but since there's a lot more, I'll place them under a cut.

He illustrated Andersen's fairy tales...

He created an illustrated version of "The Arabian Nights"...

And he also illustrated various children-oriented productions, such as Walter de la Mare's "Peacock Pie" or Charles Kingsley's "The Water-Babies".

In one of the weirder Pokemon references, the French names of Basculin and Basculegion are Bargantua and Paragruel, respectively, in reference to Rabelais' giants Gargantua and Pantagruel.

"But the girl gets stuck in my throat..."

Honestly, Gaira singing that song couldn't make it any worse.
