EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving by Gustave Dore, titled "Roland fights the sea monster (song 11 stance 37 by Roland Furieux)" transports us into a thrilling moment of Ludovico Ariosto's epic poem. The detail captures the intensity and bravery of Roland as he confronts a monstrous sea creature threatening Olimpia. In this scene, we witness Roland's heroic act as he stands tall, bound to a tree but undeterred in his mission to protect Olimpia. With unwavering determination, he uses an anchor to block the jaws of the fearsome beast, saving his beloved companion from certain peril. Dore's masterful engraving skillfully brings to life Ariosto's vivid imagination and showcases his ability to create fantastical creatures that both awe and terrify. The intricate details in this artwork highlight every aspect of the battle between man and monster – from Roland's resolute expression to the menacing presence of the sea creature. As viewers, we are drawn into this clash between good and evil, witnessing not only a physical confrontation but also a metaphorical struggle against adversity. This powerful image reminds us of our own capacity for courage and resilience when faced with daunting challenges. Through its combination of artistry and storytelling, this print serves as a testament to both Ariosto's literary genius and Dore's artistic prowess.
