By the time he created these images, Rackham was England's leading illustrator, famous throughout the world for his interpretations of fairy tales and myths. These illustrations from the original 1911 and 1912 editions, widely regarded as the greatest representations of Wagner's drama, constitute Rackham's masterworks. 64 full-page color images and 9 vignettes.

First completed book that atmospherically falls under #scaretober (imho) is a collection Rackham's illustrations. I'm always delighted and awed by Rackham, and these 'new to me' illustrations were no exception. Also, I'm not familiar with Wagner, but based on the captions for the illustrations The Ring is totally bananas. Seriously.
