Illustration of the Day: Goethe’s Faust (1891)
👨🏼‍🎨: Franz Simm
- elephants & panic procession:
“The wild crowd come here, specially,
From mountain-top, and wooded valley,
Shouting forcefully, as they can:
They celebrate the great god Pan.”
(tr. A S Kline)

Goethe’s German poem “Erlkönig” retells a tragic Danish tale of a father and son riding home, chased by the alluring but vengeful Erl-king whom only the child can see. Franz Schubert later put it to music. Painting by Moritz von Schwind.
