It's tempting to think that #Baroque / #DerivativeWorks are a thing of the #21stCentury.
And then within hours of tripping over the whimsical illustrations by #ToveJansson for a 1962 Swedish translation of #TheHobbit you, or more precisely, I, find a 1968 #BBC radio play adaptation of The Hobbit that, I kid you not, seems to have #SpikeMilligan's #Moriarty character from #TheGoons playing #Gandolf, and the dwarves sounding more like cherubs.

FerrousOtherwise I'm going to have to start apologising to everyone who has ever contributed to human culture in a way that's registered with me.
I have taken ideas, tropes, styles, principles of composition from all of them without their explicit consent. Learned from them, shuffled them around, incorporated them into my own work.
Just as these creators built on the work of all the creators who came before them. Ruthlessly.
