Description "Not Harry, not Harry, please not Harry!"

"Stand aside, you silly girl . . . stand aside now."

"Not Harry, please no, take me, kill me instead-"

"This is my last warning-"

"Not Harry! Please . . . have mercy . . . have mercy . . . Not Harry! Not Harry! Please- I'll do anything-"

"Stand aside. Stand aside, girl!"

He could have forced her away from the crib, but it seemed more prudent to finish them all...

The green light flashed around the room and she dropped like her husband.

I think the saddest part is that Harry has no idea what's going on.

The part that hurts is seeing Harry in the background, smiling and trying to look past her to see Dadda. But Dadda is gone.

I love the fact that you made her look young. People tend to forget that James and Lily were only 21 when they were murdered. I think the casting of the movie made it so. :/
But it's a really awesome drawing, post more stuff!

GAH It's killing me how in the second frame Lily looks almost hopeful... Like she's never wanted anything more in the world than to have her little boy survive. Amazing picture, as usual

Okay, I literally just made an account. I didn't have one before ten minutes ago but I was looking through your gallery and I saw this. I had to make an account just so I could say that this is amazing! All of your work is so fantastic but this is personally one of my favorites. This is just...*teary eyes* I love it..

I think the saddest part is Harry in the background, reaching for Lily's hair with a smile: all innocent as a baby. Jeez, i wanted to cry while reading this. BTW I love all your work. So much life in the characters' expressions...

So sad and so touching, what a tragic and beautiful scene, and lovely art of course. I really love your style of artwork, it just "fits" the Harry Potter world and characters so well. I think I've favorited about every piece of Harry Potter art you've done, they're all amazing! Sorry I haven't commented on each one of them, I'm being lazy, but they're all awesome!

hahayourfunny In reply to ??? [2012-08-20 16:56:27 +0000 UTC]

The thing about this that is saddest to me is Harry's expression. He is so blissfully innocent. He has no idea that his mother is begging a dark wizard to kill her instead of him. No idea that his dad is already dead downstairs. He has no idea that the dark wizard is there for him and that his life could end in a few short minutes. To me it looks like he sees some long flowing hair and like all babies, wants to give it a good tug. Thats all. No pain, no desperation.
