  • ... that illustrations from Arthur Good's La Science Amusante were used by surrealist artists such as Max Ernst? Sources: 1 identifies Good as author of La Science Amusante; 2 discusses use of La Science Amusante images by Max Ernst.
    • ALT1:... that Arthur Good constructed imaginative scientific apparatus such as the "Soap-bubble Chandelier" (shown) in La Science Amusante using common items such as bottles, candles, and soap? Source: "1 states "Much of the mysterious surrealistic charm of these engravings is due to Good’s imaginative design of his improvised scientific apparatus (often combining bottles, eggs, wine glasses, corks, wire, candles, soap, pen nibs, walnut shells, pins, paper, and other common items into bizarre-looking constructions)" (accompanying image is shown there)
