Nothing quite like the simultaneous awe and dread of looking at a construction so gargantuan that you feel like an ant on the floor of a cathedral

Pic is by Étienne-Louis Boullée. Also if you're into this kind of stuff, check out the work of Giovanni Battista Piranesi. Also have a look at the short film The Centrifuge Brain Project.

The Three Horseman by Robert Riggs

Artist: Robert Riggs
Date: 1934
Medium: Lithograph
Dimensions: 10 x 15 in. (image), 16 x 21 in. (sheet)

Three skeletal figures in ominous black robes ride horses at a galloping speed. The riders reference the four biblical horsemen from the apocalypse, who represent Death, Famine, War, and Plague. Robert Riggs was inspired by German artist Albrecht Dürer’s 1498 woodcut of the subject. The contrast between the velvety blacks and harsh whites heightens the drama of this macabre scene.

This lithograph was published on January 26, 1935 in The Saturday Evening Post as an advertisement for the pharmaceutical company McKesson and Robbins. Riggs’s work for the pharmaceutical company Smith, Kline, and French are also in Woodmere’s collection (Children’s Ward, Ward Rounds, Accident Ward, and Psychopathic Ward).

There's a lot more, just a selection, also a lot of old form sig graphics and avatars, way to many WoW screen shots. A real flashback, most of this is from like 2007.

I've been in this weird hyper mood lately. I don't know why, but I'm not complaining, since I expended some of that energy on this drawing! Originally it wasn't going to have a background, but it didn't take me long to draw EVE herself so I figured why not add a little background to it too? I'm pretty happy with how this came out, so I hope you all enjoy! 😃
