From Doré's Root to Holiday's Rat

Details from illustrations [left]: by Gustave Doré (to John Milton's Paradise Lost , Book VI, 1866) and [right]: by Henry Holiday (to The Hunting of the Snark , 1876) . Here Henry Holiday played with zoomorphism and turned what could be parts of a root into a (naughty) winged rat. i am not sure whether Doré's hatching of the "nose" and the "paw" is part of a joke already by Doré in that otherwise quite hellish scenario.
