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".

-Also Laurence Olivier's film version of the character is so scrunkly and wretched, he is babygirl and I love himb.

Ophelia by Arthur Hughes (1865)

[paintb0x]

- I want to go home. Which way did we come in? I've lost my sense of direction.

- The only beginning is birth and the only end is death - if you can't count on that, what can you count on?

(lost boys came straight out of my heart.

btw i like this early new england gravestone rubbings i added on this piece, even though it’s not really fits in time period, but who th cares, it matches the vibe, so…)

English class Tybalt doodle that i got carried away with so now he looks 12 👍

[ Image description: a coloured digital drawing of Tybalt Capulet from the play Romeo and Juliet. He is looking to the side with a seething expression and wears a feathery hat. Words in speech bubble beside him read "To strike him dead, I hold it not a sin." The drawing is in mostly red tones and the background is a contrasting blue. /End ID]
