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

@baragesi -- I became aware of the Dodgson debate when analyzing Henry Holiday's illustrations to what is (in my view) and 's masterpiece: the tragicomedy "The Hunting of the Snark" (snrk.de/kwm). Serious contribution to the Dodgson debate are very rare. I recommend Katherine Wakely-Mulroney's "The Man Who Loved Children: Lewis Carroll Studies’ Evidence Problem" (Journal of the History of Sexuality, Univ. of Texas Press, Vol. 30, № 3., Sept. 2021).

@snark @destandaard

The first printing of my own comparison between an illustration by to 's and the "Image Breakers" by Elder occurred in 2017.

DeMoor perhaps found it in en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?t. But she didn't specify any source.

Below are the images which Prof. is using in her book "A Cross-Cultural History of Britain and Belgium, 1815-1918: Mudscapes and Artistic Entanglements" (2022) in her comparison

@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, standaard.be/cnt/dmf20220505_9) in the Belgian "De Standaard" (@destandaard@birdsite.wilde.cloud and @destandaard@birdbots.leptonics.com).
