I'm planning to run Carmilla in [livejournal.com profile] gothic_lit now that Drac is finishing, it's only a short story/novella and it'll take less than three weeks at one section a day. Could someone with more knowledge of art find me an icon or so? It's a Victorian vampire story, written in 1872 so before Dracula, and distinctly lesbian in content. It's narrated by a young woman who almost falls victim to another seemingly-young woman who comes to stay.

How about this?

Beautiful but dangerous-looking woman, another woman dimly glimpsed who may or may not be a reflection (and there's reflection, two-in-one stuff going on in Carmilla), the theme of drinking, plus it's the right period.

Nice, isn't it. I'm trying to find some other ones to go with, which currently means sifting through Waterhouse. I want lesbians, damn it!

Don't know if you still want pics, since you have an icon already, but I was struck by:

Ooh, this 1860 woodcut is quite cool too:
