PUMPKIN PANORAMA

 

Now that it's safe to go out into the pumpkin patch once more, I thought I'd share this forbidding piece of graphic art, Nico Delort, celebrating (if that's not an inappropriate word of so 'dark' an artwork) the Great Pumpkin!

THE WITCH-HUNTING SEASON

 

From 61-years-ago today: the cover of The New Yorker with Halloween-themed art by that irreverent spook-meister, the great Charles Addams (1912-1988).

NOVEMBER

 

 

No sun — no moon!

No morn — no noon —

No dawn — no dusk — no proper time of day.

 

No warmth, no cheerfulness, no healthful ease,

 

No comfortable feel in any member —

 

No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees,

 

No fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds! —

 

November!

 

Thomas Hood (1799-1845)
