Harry Clarke, The Fall of the House of Usher. Say, rather, the rending of her coffin. (Illustration for Tales of Mystery and Imagination by Edgar Allan Poe.) Two horrified figures recoil over an open book as nightmarish creatures — a roaring dragon-beast and a bleeding prostrate figure — emerge in a swirling, macabre dreamscape. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:The_Fall_of_the_House_of_Usher#/media/File:Harry_Clarke_The_Fall_of_the_House_of_Usher.jpg
