Darwin's Fireplace and the Baker's Dear Uncle

Darwin's Fireplace and the Baker's Dear Uncle
Segments from
• [left, vertically stretched]: Photo (before 1882) of the top of the fireplace in Charles Darwin's study
• [center, vertically stretched]: from Alfred Parsons' depiction (1882) of Charles Darwin's study in Down
• [right]: an illustration (1876) by Henry Holiday to Lewis Carroll's The Hunting of the Snark

This is not one of Henry Holiday's allusions. Here Alfred Parsons perhaps alluded to Holiday's illustration. Parsons did not simply copy a photo, he also rearranged the fire place decoration a bit.
