Karl Hanns Strobl - Eleagabal Kuperus, 1913

Karl Hanns Strobl - Eleagabal Kuperus  (cover illustration by Georg Müller München) 1913

- image found here.

I'll be sharing more books associated with Karl Hanns Strobl, such as a more detailed look at "Der Orchideengarten" which he edited, in the future.  Information related to a novel of his titled "Lemuria" from 1917 can be found at the black sun.

If anyone knows the name of the artist who created this cover, please share in the comments, thanks!

Actually Georg Müller is the name of the publisher (based in München = Munich). I have no idea who illustrated this though.

Thanks for the links, I'm going to need to do a lot of digging. I'm sure there's much more by this artist that would be well suited for Monster Brains.
