Gustave Doré (1832-1883), after - O Earth, how like to Heaven, if not preferred. More justly.
Gustave Doré (1832-1883) original steel engraving.
Original steel engraving (1866) by the French Romantic artist Gustave Doré, well-known for his highly valuable lithographs and his melodramatic, grandiose paintings. While his extensive œuvre spans every medium, his acclaim and posthumous renown stem primarily from his talents as an illustrator of classic literary works. Doré lies at the confluence of late Romanticism and early Symbolism, manifesting itself in a self-conscious idiosyncrasy combined with a penchant for the Sublime.
Signed (on plate).
H 25 x 20 mm (matrix)
Provenance: Cassell and Co.'s 1866 First Edition Folio of Milton's "Paradise Lost".
State of Conservation: Good conservation state; no sign of previous restoration and conservation interventions. Partially slightly browned.
