Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Bible Gallery: Illustratd by Gustave Doré, With Memoir of Doré and Descriptive Letter-Press For centuries the Scriptures have furnished the favorite themes for artists. Were the famous galleries of Europe deprived of the works which have been suggested by the Old Testament and the New, they would lose at least one-half of their masterpieces. The great French painter and designer, Gustave Dore, after illustrating various secular works, devoted his talent to the sacred volume. In this he displayed great power and richness of imagination and much vigor of conception, united with a wonderful facility and swiftness of execution. The illustrations of the Bible added greatly to his celebrity. The entire work, in two folio volumes, is too large and costly for general circulation. The publishers, therefore, have issued in this volume a selection of one hundred of the choicest pictures, and these are accompanied by a descriptive narrative intended to furnish all the information needed for the proper understanding of the persons or incidents portrayed. The book being furnished at a moderate price, will, it is hoped, find its way into many homes, and prove a useful companion to God´s most holy Word.
