Deliberately avoiding current events here (indirect references sometimes).

cover for The Arabian Night's Entertainments by Andrew Lang, H. J. Ford, 1898
Love the way they made book covers in 1898. I haven't read all these stories so I don't know if the cover is illustrating a fairy tale. I love this demon flying over the wonderful city at night.
It's available a lot of places including here:
