520    "The illustrator, designer, and writer Edward Gorey (1925-
       2000) is beloved for his droll, surreal, and slightly 
       sinister drawings. Gorey's Worlds delves into the numerous
       and surprising cultural and artistic sources that 
       influenced Gorey's unique visual language. A variety of 
       objects shaped his artistic mindset, from popular culture 
       to the more than 26,000 books he owned and the works of 
       art in his vast collection. This collection, which Gorey 
       gifted to the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art upon his 
       death, is diverse in style, subject, and media, and 
       includes prints by Eugene Delacroix, Charles Meryon, 
       Edvard Munch, and Odilon Redon; photographs by Eugene 
       Atget; and drawings by Balthus, Pierre Bonnard, Charles 
       Burchfield, Bill Traylor, and Edouard Vuillard. The essays
       in Gorey's Worlds also examine such consuming passions as 
       animals-cats in particular-and ballet. Featuring a 
       sumptuous selection of Gorey's creations alongside his 
       fascinating and diverse collections, Gorey's Worlds 
       reveals the private world that inspired one of the most 
       idiosyncratic artists of the twentieth century."--
