Borderline as mad science, but definitely pulpy, and definitely a subject we’ve broached here at length at Erotic Mad Science.
This is also evidence on today’s Internet that whatever it is, there’s a site for it. In this case, a site Poulpe Pulps, a site devoted to pulp covers that feature giant octopuses. No, not a joke. And for what it’s worth, I think it’s awesome that we live in a world where one can find a site like this.
On top of that, the site creator put out an appeal to ver readers: where does this illustration come from? And as it happens, ve got an answer.
It turns out that the meme of people striding naked into the sea to transform into sea creatures, one so lovingly illustrated for Erotic Mad Science by Bokuman recently, has an artistic and perhaps even a mythological antecedent.
Found recently at Janitor of Lunacy. The artist is Edwin Willard Deming (1860-1942) about whom I haven’t been able to learn a great deal (there’s a short biography here and a notice from The New York Times in 1914 about one of his exhibitions here), except that he achieved notice as a painter of scenes of Native American life, which makes me think that perhaps this painting is an illustration of a Native American story or myth, though my sadly-limited knowledge of such things means that this can be only conjecture on my part. (If anyone knows better, please write in.)
For my part, the painting really does make me want to head for a seashore somewhere…
Awesome blog Wicked Halo has put together this gallery of images of the Bride of the Monster as created by Elsa Lanchester, a subject we’ve broached before here at Erotic Mad Science. All are worthy of your attention, but my personal second favorite was probably this one:
Thematically this falls into a line with one of the very first posts done here.
The hat tip goes to PZ Myers at Pharyngula, whose personal favorite coincides with mine. If you look at the Wicked Halo post I’ll bet you can guess which one that is (but no extra points if you peek at PZ’s post first).
