I tried to enter a Sherlock Holmes illustration contest. I lost, but I think my illustration for The Musgrave Ritual was pretty clever

Alan Rickman as Sherlock Holmes (1976)

“Holmes is played with superb coolness and languid authority by Alan Rickman in a performance which interweaves touches of melodrama with masterpieces of understatement in such an absorbing and funny fashion that it dazzles the audience. Others on stage therefore look grey and we have the odd phenomenon of a one-man show with a cast of more than 20.” (Sunday Mercury)

“Although looking a little young for the part, he catches just the right combination of fin de siècle cynicism and scientific curiosity.” (Birmingham Post)
