EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Satan in Council" we are transported to a mesmerizing world of darkness and intrigue. Created by the talented engraver Gustave Dore in 1885, this piece draws inspiration from John Milton's epic poem, Paradise Lost, as well as Dante Alighieri's Inferno. The image depicts Satan himself presiding over a council of demons in the depths of Hell. Dore's intricate engravings bring to life the battle between good and evil, showcasing his mastery of detail and composition. The devilish figures surrounding Satan exude malevolence and cunning, while their expressions reveal an ominous sense of purpose. As our eyes explore every corner of this vertical illustration, we are reminded of the power religion holds over humanity. Symbolic references to biblical narratives intertwine with elements from classical literature, creating a rich tapestry that invites contemplation on themes such as sin, redemption, and divine justice. The juxtaposition between Heaven and Hell is palpable here; it serves as a reminder that even within the darkest realms lies beauty worth exploring. This thought-provoking artwork transports us beyond its physical dimensions into realms where angels fall from grace and souls navigate through purgatory. "The Palmer" has skillfully captured this iconic engraving by Gustave Dore for Fine Art Storehouse. It stands not only as a testament to Dore's artistic genius but also as an invitation for viewers to delve deeper into these timeless tales that have shaped our understanding of Christianity
