The Snark in your Dreams (low resolution)

The Snark in your Dreams (low resolution)
[top]: Detail from the etching (1566-1568) The Image Breakers by Marcus Gheeraerts the Elder.

[bottom]: Detail from the illustration (1876) by Henry Holiday to The Hunting of the Snark. Lewis Carroll (C. L. Dodgson) did not want Henry Holiday to depict the Snark in the illustrations to The Hunting of the Snark. But Holiday was allowed to let it appear veiled by its "gown, bands, and wig" in The Barrister's Dream.

Low resolution version of the image shown below made in order to compare the images without looking at details.
