EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving, titled "MILTON: PARADISE LOST" is a mesmerizing depiction of John Milton's renowned literary masterpiece. Created by the talented Gustave Doré, this illustration transports viewers into the depths of Milton's imaginative world. The scene captures an intense moment from the epic poem, showcasing an archangel confronting Satan after his expulsion from Paradise. The engraving beautifully portrays the contrasting characters - the majestic and righteous archangel standing tall against the fallen angel, who exudes a sense of malevolence and ugliness. Doré's intricate details bring to life the dark ambiance surrounding Satan as he navigates through a desolate night. The composition skillfully conveys both evil and beauty simultaneously, reflecting Milton's exploration of morality in his work. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of Milton's profound influence on literature and how he reimagined biblical narratives in "Paradise Lost". This visual interpretation offers us a glimpse into one of humanity's most iconic tales – that of Lucifer's rebellion and mankind’s fall from grace. "The Granger Collection" has once again curated an exceptional piece that showcases their commitment to preserving historical artistry. This print serves as a testament to both Doré’s incredible talent as an illustrator and Milton’s enduring legacy as one of history’s greatest poets.
