The Fantasy & Science Fiction Illustrations of Albert Robida - Pete Beard

"The images Albert Robida created in the later 19th and early 20th century are by turns amusing, fantastic and sinister. He was undoubtedly among the first to explore the illustrative potential of what we generally refer to as Science or Speculative Fiction, and because of the historical period in which his work was created it is highly predictive of the sub-genre known as Steampunk. This is by far the longest single video I've made but I hope you will agree that Robida's remarkable output deserves the additional time and detail." from the video introduction
