PM1000 EDWARD GOREY - THE HOUSE PARTY

Edward Gorey (American, 1925–2000) The House Party

Six high-society lizards, each with their own impressive attire and distinct personality, invite you to join them at an eclectic house party. Whether in matching loungewear, offering a fine chapeau, or fiddling with a decorative fan, this eccentric group seems to be enjoying each other’s company—or are they? It’s up to you to decide as you piece together this quirky drawing by Edward St. John Gorey, whose art is widely beloved for its magic, mischief, and mystery.
