EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Illustration for the works of Rabelais" by Gustave Dore. The artwork, now part of a private collection, was created in the late 19th century as an accompaniment to "The Works of Rabelais" published by Chatto and Windus around 1890. Dore's masterful technique is evident in this piece, which captures the essence of Francois Rabelais' literary world with remarkable precision. The engraving depicts a scene filled with vibrant characters and intricate details that transport viewers into a fantastical realm. Every stroke seems to breathe life into the whimsical figures that populate this illustration.
