Marie Spartali Stillman, The Pilgrim Folk, 1914; Spartali in 1868, photograph by Julia Margaret Cameron
There is no more inventive—or scary—miniature in Catherine's prayer book than this full-page depiction of hell. A gaping lion's mouth opens its batlike lips tipped with talons; inside is another, red-hot maw. Demons cast damned souls into this terrifying entrance to the furnace of hell, above which rises the castle of death decorated with skulls. Burning towers heat caldrons into which mutilated souls are pitched. A third mouth forms the domed roof. At the bottom crouches a green demon whose mouth sprouts scrolls inscribed with the Seven Deadly Sins. In the smaller miniature, the holy water and incense offered by the priest to a corpse seem like scant protection for the potential horrors depicted in the facing image.

We must try to invent new techniques, unrecognisable… …which are unlike any previous method… …to avoid childishness, ridicule… …make our world unlike any other… …where previous standards don't apply… …which must be new, like the technique Nobody must realise that the artist is worthless… …that he's an abnormal, inferior being… …who squirms and twists like a worm to survive Nobody must ever catch him out as naive Everything must be presented as perfect… …based on unknown, unquestionable rules… …like a madman, that's it Pane after pane, because I can't correct anything… …and nobody must notice A sign painted on a pane… …corrects, without soiling it… …a sign painted earlier on another pane But everyone must believe… …that it isn't the trick of an untalented artist, impotent artist Not at all. It must look like a sure decision… …fearless, lofty and almost arrogant Nobody must know that a sign succeeds by chance… is fragile That as soon as a sign appears well made, by a miracle… …it must be protected, looked after, as in a shrine But nobody must realise… …that the artist is a poor, trembling idiot, second-rate… …living by chance and risk, in disgrace like a child… …his life reduced to absurd melancholy… …degraded by the feeling of something lost for ever
