EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration by Gustave Dore for John Milton's renowned epic poem, Paradise Lost. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of Book I, lines 44 and 45, transporting viewers into a world of poetic wonder. Dore's meticulous attention to detail is evident in this artwork, as every stroke brings life to the scene. The image depicts a pivotal moment in the narrative where Milton describes Satan's fall from heaven. With his masterful use of light and shadow, Dore creates a dramatic atmosphere that perfectly complements the intensity of the text. The print itself is a testament to both Dore's artistic prowess and Milton's literary genius. It serves as a visual representation of their collaboration, allowing admirers of both art forms to appreciate their combined brilliance. Originally published in Cassell Petter and Galpin's illustrated edition of Paradise Lost around 1880, this high-resolution scan has been digitally cleaned to ensure optimal reproduction at larger sizes if desired. Its inclusion in private collections further emphasizes its significance as an invaluable piece of art history. As we gaze upon this enchanting print, we are reminded not only of Milton's timeless words but also Dore's ability to breathe life into them through his exceptional talent. It stands as a testament to the enduring power and beauty found within great works of literature and art alike.
