The Dark Quarter – Esmee’s Attic

I made this illustration in 2022 for the board game “The Dark Quarter” published by Lucky Duck Games and Van Ryder Games. It is a narrative game with fantasy elements set in New Orleans in the early 80s.

The illustration pictures an attic of the order’s building in New Orleans. It is the place where one character from the game lives, there are her desk, a mattress for sleeping and a dresser in the right bottom corner. The attic is not welcoming and the atmosphere is enhanced by old caskets, pews, chandeliers and candlesticks.
