That first one is totally a rip-off of Yoshitoshi's "Death of Kuniyoshi"
Well, homage, anyway.

incredible drawings, I'm simply blown away by this mans imagination and skill! Thanks again for your amazing posts.
I'm guessing that "A vision of sin" was the inspiration for Edward Lucas White's brilliant neglected dark fantasy tale, "The Snout" (1927). It fits the tale so closely that I took it as an illustration until I compared the dates.
