ArtistAn 1890's Ink and pencil sketch. In the style of Gustave Dore woodcut or mezzotint, Night in a black Victorian bedroom in the 1890s. A beautiful young woman lies in her bed, bare beneath a loose-fitting white gown draped over her body, lying dead with her staring eyes wide open, her throat cut from ear to ear, her hair sprawled over the pillow and sheets
This image depicts the suspenseful moment in Edith Nesbit's scary short story, 'The Mystery of the Semi-Detached', when a young man discovers the lifeless body of his betrothed. Considering it was written in 1893, it is an intensely graphic scene.
This art was produced for my reading on Patreon, on my channel,

The image depicts a woman reclining on a bed, with an expressive pose and flowing hair, surrounded by soft shadows and light. The style is reminiscent of vintage illustrations in monochrome.
