This thread is essentially for posting pictures your really like of authors (not necessarily authors you like, but it couldn't hurt)
The reason I'm even starting this is because I just stumbled upon this lovely picture of GK Chesterton:
ihttp://www.dur.ac.uk/martin.ward/gkc/pictures/chesterton-2.jpg

I'm sorry if this thread is considered too flimsy for this forum, but it seemed silly to move it to ILE instead.
Those of you wondering how to post pictures that you've found online: just write "i", immediately followed by the address to the image, such as ihttp://www.website.com/image.gif

Interesting for the awareness of "image" that he wanted to project.
(Oystein, there are size limits on the i tag, it's not you!)

Nyerg. Well, I'm computer illiterate... but at least I'm trying. Can you imagine the spinning-in-his-grave old Kingsley's doing over the Bush campaign? When the candidate's PROS include butchering American English... poor old dead pedant. We'll have to channel him.

That Tom Robbins one is really improved by the Hell's Angel note.
That Perec picture is great too! I saw a different picture of him a few months ago that really made me like him, since he had a nice black cat on his shoulders that reminded me of my ol' pal Fjodor (who unfortunately ran into trouble with a motorist back in March)

Man Ray took some good ones too. The one of Proust on his death bed makes me feel creepy just for looking at it though.
http://www.getty.edu/art/collections/images/m/05333301.jpg (err, not shown directly, in case there's some here who'd rather not see it)

Oh, and an image that I was introduced to by this very board:
http://mrs.umn.edu/~deaneb/images/woolf.jpg

And on a sillier note... If we mix the Byron picture with Eugenides, we get Lermontov?

Two Smoking Photos...

I've got this Beckett 8”x10” on top of one of my bookcases, and it’s one of my favorite author photos ever:
http://i4.ebayimg.com/01/i/01/42/4f/6f_1.JPG

Perhaps my second-favorite Didion photo is this (although the one I truly love has to be on the front of the Modern Library edition of “Slouching Towards Bethlehem”):
