Reinterpreting Lost Art - Surrealism and 19th Century Art

I recently purchased a 125 year old childrens story book. It was filled with some pretty amazing pen and ink art from the 19th century. Most of the artists and the art are lost to the world. But I have a fascination with them and often collect books from the 18th and 19th century and try to reinterpret the art within them. So here you will find my interpretations of various books in my care. Enjoy! 


The Mammoth Story Book of Nightmares (taken from the 1896 Mammoth Story Book)




















Family Nightmares For Young and Old (Taken from the 1874 Haus & Herd Magazine)












L'Illustration Nightmares (Taken from L'Illustration Journal Universel 1871)
