(Mahendra Singh’s illustrations often contain pictorial references to works of other artists. He started to hide many pictorial conundrums in his Snark book before I learned to know him in December 2008. Mahendra then encouraged me to continue my Snark hunt in Henry Holiday’s illustrations. Without him probably my blog wouldn’t exist.)

It was triggered by an essay published in 1860 in the controversial Essays and Reviews, published in 1860, where Henry Bristow Wilson in which Wilson questioned the doctrint. Regrettably, there are no references to Karen Gardiner‘s excellent research in Lovett’s book.)

It’s heavy reading now. (I set the scale to imperial units. That will make Jacob Rees-Mogg happy. Later, in hell, he will be forced to use Planck units.)
