The Great Red Dragon and the Woman Clothed with the Sun
by William Blake Publication date c. 1805
part of the Rosenwald Collection at the National Gallery of Art
"Blake was commissioned to create over one hundred paintings intended to illustrate books of the Bible. These paintings depict "The Great Red Dragon" in various scenes from the Book of Revelation.
And behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth.
Rev. 12:3-4 KJV "

charlotte!! congrats on your milestone 💚 i would love Vigée Le Brun, mostly because i am always looking for new artists that exude the kind of ~feelings~ i like from art
i love dark and atmospheric works, my favourite artists are francisco goya, jamie (and andrew) wyeth, edward hopper, paul klee, van gogh, and théodore géricault (specifically his anatomical studies on corpses and his work with the mentally ill), and dragan bibin
it has only also just now occurred to me we haven't talked about art lol 💚
visit the art gallery
ahhhh finnie!! thank you so much for the request! you are the first visitor to the gallery and I'm so excited!!!!! 🥰🥰
dark and atmospheric art also holds an incredibly special place in my heart, and all the artists you've listed are so wonderful! I hope I can suggest something that gives you the same vibes 💙
here's a list of artists I think you might like (with more details and images below the cut!)
John Atkinson Grimshaw
Leonora Carrington
Odilon Redon
William Blake
John Atkinson Grimshaw (Thro' the Woods and Roundhay Park Lake)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I picked Grimshaw for you because he has these lovely, haunting nighttime landscapes that are both beautiful and unsettling. the darkened trees and lingering mist seem to engulf the small, featureless figures as they traverse deeper into the darkness. these are two of my favorite examples, but he has many others in this genre as well!
Leonora Carrington (The Ancestor and Self-Portrait in Orthopedic Black Tie)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
on the more abstract/surrealist side, I picked Carrington. she is such a compelling yet very under-studied artist who painted in a surrealist style for most of her career. for me, surrealism is often an "I love it or I hate it" kind of thing, and I love Carrington's work. her pieces really give off that dark vibe that is kind of creepy and slightly off-putting, yet also make you want to lean in closer and figure out the story behind the images. there's that element of both horror and fascination, which is why I think you might like her art.
Odilon Redon (The Eye, Like a Strange Balloon, Moves Toward Infinity and Mystery
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Odilon Redon was actually quite heavily inspired by Goya, so he seems like a great fit for you! just like Goya, he was a prolific printmaker as well as a painter, and he produced tributes to other artists like Goya and even writers like Edgar Allan Poe (the first image here comes from his tribute to Poe). he was a symbolist artist, and his art is just really fucking weird (affectionate). there's darkness, there's horror, there's weird uses of color, there's strange, indistinct spaces, featureless figures, and just this sort of nebulous floaty-ness to many of his works. not only do I think you'll like him because he was inspired by Goya, but also because of this kind of whimsy and weirdness he mixes with horror elements.
William Blake (Ancient of Days and Hekate)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
although he is much better known as a poet today (he's the "tiger tiger burning bright" guy), Blake was also an artist and illustrated his own poems as well as other works such as Dante's Inferno. his work feels almost symbolist, but about 100 years earlier. he was close to being a contemporary of Goya, and I think you can definitely see some resemblances in his art. at the time, his work was considered the product of "madness" and "visions," and it certainly has an eerie, otherworldly quality to it. kinda like Redon, some of it is just plain weird. I picked Blake both because of his resonances with Goya, but also the strange, mystical, and terrifying worlds he creates in his art.
I hope this was interesting/fun/helpful and that you found a new artist or artwork to explore further!
again, thank you so much for the request! 🥰
love and hugs,
charlotte 💙

💕💕 self-love time! talk about which ones of YOUR creations (edits, artworks, fanfics) you like the most then send to other creators to do the same 💕💕
AGH Thank you for the ask, Frenchie! Since I create various things, gonna be indulgent and list a few different answers:
[Artworks]
Okay not gonna lie, I still love and adore that Huxley sketch I did recently. But I realized I hadn't posted this sketch on Tumblr yet, so I'd also say my sketch of Alonzo from @mr-laveau's series NeXus is one of my favs
Tumblr media
[Writing]
I haven't yet started my first proper fic, but my fic adjacents were so fun to create— Especially the Sam/David one since I had to format it from small notes to something cohesive and readable.
[Now if we get a little abstract with it, I'd also argue some of the rarepairs I've developed fall under here (specifically Moonlit Chains and Bites n Bruises) but those are mostly offline.]
[True Self-Indulgence]
Self-promo still trips me up sometimes, but I am very proud of some of the videos I've made on my channel so here's a few of my personal favs

The Quentin Blake Centre for Illustration, the UK’s first and only charity for illustration, is touring an exhibition of Quentin Blake‘s original illustrations around Britain during 2023, and into next year, with more venues being sought. “The choice of moments, and a sense of discretion about what to draw and what not to draw, is particularly important in the business of illustrating poetry.” –…

Out of the earth you came ~ 1930 ~ Cardwell Spencer Higgins (American artist, 1902-1983)
gallery note: A beautiful original 1930 dated pen and ink drawing by Cardwell Higgins titled “Out of the earth you came.” The artist created a series of these noir black and white fantasy illustrative costumed art deco pen & ink drawings between the years of 1927 – 1929 exploring late 19th century mysticism, ala William Blake. These have a psychedelic, psychological allure, and are homages in many regards to the artworks of Aubrey Beardsley and Harry Clarke.
