'The Apocalypse (II, 1-7)' is a wonderful illustration by Sidney H Sime (one of the artists associated with the Golden Age of Illustration). Sime (1867-1941) was born into poverty in Manchester & worked his way through a variety of jobs before he entered the Liverpool School of Art. While studying at that School, he won the South Kensington Medal. He established a reputation for fantastic illustrations through contributions to Pick-Me-Up, The Idler & the Pall Mall Gazette. After he received an inheritance, Sime even purchased The Idler, but the investment was to prove unsuccessful, with the magazine closing within two years. in 1905, Sime was approached by Lord Dunsany to illustrate The Gods of Pegna (1905) & his subsequent contributions to Dunsany's work marked the beginning of a long association between author & illustrator.
