1875 Ancient Mariner Coleridge Deck Dore Gustave Mast Poetry Sailor Samuel Taylor


EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white wood engraving, titled "COLERIDGE: ANCIENT MARINER" transports viewers to the mesmerizing world of Samuel Taylor Coleridge's famous poem. The illustration, created by Gustave Doré in 1875, beautifully captures a pivotal moment from the narrative. In this scene, we witness the intense impact of an otherworldly encounter on the protagonist. As he stares into the eyes of a ghostly figure with long gray hair and piercing eyes, his blood rushes through his veins like a torrential wave. The sheer force of this supernatural encounter overwhelms him completely. The artist's intricate detailing brings every element to life – from the weathered wooden deck beneath the sailor's feet to the tattered sails billowing in the wind. With great skill and precision, Doré masterfully conveys both physical and emotional turmoil within this single frame. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to an era when maritime adventures were filled with mystery and danger. We can almost feel ourselves standing on that creaking ship's deck alongside our troubled protagonist as he succumbs to a state of unconsciousness known as "swound". This powerful image serves as a visual testament to Coleridge's enduring words while reminding us of humanity's eternal fascination with tales of seafaring journeys and their profound impact on those who dare venture into uncharted waters.
