Autre Monde by Grandville (1803-1847), whose real name was Jean Ignace Isidore Gérard, was a caricaturist later recognized as a grandfather of Surrealism. Un Autre Monde (1844) describes a parallel world created by three sleazy demiurges named Dr. Krackq, Dr. Puff and Dr. Hahblle. Each also travels within the world, describing its people and their customs.
