Cthulhu Cthursday: Howard V. Brown Illustrates Lovecraft
Posted by Ross Rosenberg
In 1936, two stories by H.P. Lovecraft appeared in the pages of Astounding Stories, At the Mountains of Madness and The Shadow Out of Time. Howard Brown did the cover and interior illustrations for both of these and they are fantastic. I really like Brown’s sense of scale with all his humans dwarfed by their surroundings and their inhabitants.

From the linked illustrations, Brown’s Yithians actually look quite cute.
