File talk:Lewis Carroll - Henry Holiday - Hunting of the Snark - Plate 4.jpg

No evidence that the "Ocean Chart" was made by Henry Holiday

edit

In "The Hunting of the Snark" there are ten illustrations and the illustrations to the front cover and the back cover. Nine illustrations (engraved by Joseph Swain) plus the front&back cover illustrations are made by Henry Holiday (1839-1927). The poetry is by Lewis Carroll [Real name: Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832-1896). For the map, typesetting has been used. I think that Carroll designed the map and then commissioned a typesetter to make the printing plate (https://snrk.de/page_the-ocean-chart/). --DL5MDA (talk) 09:52, 7 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
