Started as a painting but it was frustrating, so I quickly did that instead since I'm currently experimenting with 19th century vibes.

Beatrix Potter (British, English ) • The Rabbits' Christmas Party (generic title) • Drawing: watercolour and pen and ink over pencil on paper • 1892 • Virginia and Albert Museum, London

This drawing is one of a narrative series of four finished watercolours in the Linder Bequest known as ‘The Rabbits’ Christmas Party’.

For dessert, the rabbits roasted apples. They tied apples to strings and hung them by the fire. The rabbit who watched them used a cabbage leaf to keep her face from getting too hot. After all of the food and exercise, some of the rabbits had trouble staying awake around the warm fireplace.

– Excerpt from The Rabbit's Christmas Party

Great Minds of the Isles - A Dishonored Illustration Series

Fig. 2: Anton Sokolov, Royal Physician

Following Esmond Roseburrow's footsteps, Sokolov is responsible for a fast advancement relying mostly on the weaponization of whale oil technology. Whereas the former was a man of principles, the latter isn't plagued by such a conscience, and as such, has no qualms about making destruction part of his research. The same could be applied to his experiments during the Rat Plague: many unwilling test subjects found their death at his hands.

This is part of the reason why I chose to depict him painting. This more peaceful side of his work (debatable, considering his relationship with his apprentice Delilah) can easily conceal the more darker depths of his personality and work. But we can still glimpse the very morally grey scientist by looking at the background; here lie tangible testaments to his overbearing curiosity.

See Fig. 1: Esmond Roseburrow, Father of the Industrial Age

See Fig. 3: Alexandria Hypatia, The Good Doctor

Read The Age of Enlightenment, a series of writings covering science through the Empire of the Isles
