"He provided a black background, broken only by stars and moon, and drew Pierrot and Columbine rising out of the tops of tall candle flames. He had four other drawings in the annual. It was a craftsman's work, and he was apparently still thinking of some sort of gainful work as an artist" (Blotner, p. 98).
