Schnabelperchten -Austrian Christmas Folklore – Teal/ Turquoise – Limited Edition Lino Print
“Garrrr Garrr!”
Alongside traditional Alpine Christmas figures such as St Nicholas and the Krampus, there are groups of other figures who come out around the festive season, and this figure focusses on punishing naughty or lazy little girls.
These figures come under the umbrella term “Perchta”, and this design is specifically based on the Austrian variety, the Schnabelperchten. Like the Krampus, she may wear a basket to carry off badly behaved little girls, her scissors are for at the very least threatening to disembowel her quarry, and in the extreme, their use, filling their subject with sawdust and sewing them up.

Dr Theobald the Rat Plague Doctor – Linoprint
Based on the characters of Montol Festival’s guise guild of quack doctors, The Splendid League of Physicians, most of whom are known as Dr. Theobald. Found within the tricorn of Dr Theobald Ph.D, the founder, is a small rat wearing his own tricorn and beaked mask. The Splendid League of Physicians is an equal opportunities employer and that young Dr. Theobald, here, happens to be a rat serves to stop the black death almost at the root of the problem. Here he has been immortalised with his robe, physicians’ cane and doctors’ bag.

Dr Theobald The Astrologer – Plague Doctor – Lino Print
I am very inspired by the look of the plague doctor. So much so in fact I also make masks, and part of Montol involves groups of similarly dressed people in guilds roaming the streets of Penzance on the 21st December every year and entertaining people at the various pubs they stop in. I have made a guild of quack doctors who play music, and add comedy to the evening, with out dated and terrifying cures and questionable sick notes for those who wish to stay in bed the following day. We also have a guise beast called Ratael, a sort of mutant plague-ridden Obby Oss in the form of a rat.
All except two of the members of the guild are called Dr. Theobald, and this fellow examines the stars from his tower to inform the other doctors if planets are aligning in a particular manner as a warning of plague. A very, very, very former Dr. Theobald has donated his body for medical research in the background.

All except two of the members of the guild are called Dr. Theobald, and this fellow beats the demons and illness out of patients, upon his robes are embroidered leeches, a quacks favoured company. He is just about to set to his evening business, and there will be a lot of people in need of his services tonight, as a meteor has foretold him of this news.
*Disclaimer* This was designed circa 2015, but apparently foretold some events in 2020
