The master of the macabre created this amazing wash-tone masterpiece right here, which is 1 of the VERY best pages in the entire book! The Monster of Frankenstein has a touching scene here, over the deceased Dolly, who was Dr. Ingles wife. He thinks she's dead from his doing, fainting earlier when she sees the sight of the monster. You can feel the empathy and compassion for him in this pivotal scene, while seeing he has feelings and a heart as he prays over her body. The dialogue to himself and to Dolly is striking from the printed page; "A wave of remorse and self loathing washed over me...Forgive me... This was my fault. I knew it had to be. The very sight of me had killed this woman, had shocked her into irreversible decline... I wanted to pray... But I did not know how, or to whom... I let my guilt and shame and remorse engulf me... I could do nothing but weep bitterly." You feel the monster's grief from Wrightson's art without even reading the dialogue, it's simply breathtaking how Wrightson draws emotions! It's a key scene in the story here, as it leads to his understanding of exactly what Doctor Ingles is up to. He soon finds out the real monster is Ingles and he is more human than any of his counterparts in this story. The reviews of this book and art are already famous and have been dubbed a modern masterpiece. This was Wrightson's last published work before his passing in 2017 and is regarded as one of his best. ALL art on our website (including this one) are able to be purchased with VERY fair time payments, and trades are always considered towards "ANY" art on our website!
