Below you see probably the first reference in academia to my findings: "A Cross-Cultural History of Britain and Belgium, 1815-1918: Mudscapes and Artistic Entanglements" by , Springer Nature, 2022-03-21.

Prof. Deemor used my findings without specifying her source.

In Lewis Carroll's "The Hunting of the Snark", the textual puns are accompanied by Henry Holiday's pictorial puns.

I think that Eliots comment on borrowing by poets applies not only to writers, but to all art thieves: snrk.de/on-borrowing/.
