About W. T. Horton
William Thomas Horton was a Belgian-born English artist, writer, and occultist connected to the symbolist and aestheticist movements. His drawings were largely unpublished during his lifetime. He has been described as "the only illustrator who came near Yeats's ideal of a Symbolist art composed entirely of images that could be recognised as meaningful by instinct rather than because of cultural conditioning." Another critic wrote that "though impeded by severe technical limitations... he could, when things happened to fall right — as they did most reliably with monstrous and sinister-grotesque subjects — achieve work of powerful suggestivity, not quite like that of anyone else."
