Mervyn Peake did this illustration for the collection of nonsense verse called Rhymes without Reason which he published in 1944. He worked for many years on The Gormenghast Trilogy which, in my limited experience, is the richest prose I've read. He offsets his melancholy with the grotesque and flights of fantasy that reform your imagination. The poem to follow offers a sample.
