I found this beautiful full color illustration of the Baudelaires, obviously by Brett Helquist. I'm unsure, however, where it is from. Does anybody know?

Oh, this is really beautiful! Unfortunately I don't know the source. But thanks for sharing this with us.

I wasn't initially sure that it really was a Helquist piece, as the colouring resembles that used on some licensed ASoUE merchandise which apes Helquist's style. However, after some research I was able to track down this piece in particular to a collection of archive images donated by Brett Helquist to Brigham Young University ( thread here). I can no longer access the article on the subject, but the image in question is clearly displayed in this tweet:

Nice work! I edited your post in the thread you linked to include the full text of the article (since we never know when those things will disappear). I hope you don't mind.

Thanks for your research Dante. So it must have been a new one he did specifically for that exhibit. It’s a shame it’s not available anywhere else.

Btw, in case you cannot access the original article now or in the future, I've uploaded most of the photos on The Snicket File, here and here.
