EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The War in Heaven" by Gustave Dore, a renowned French artist from the 19th century. The engraving was created as an illustration for John Milton's epic poem, Paradise Lost. Dore's exceptional talent is evident in this piece, which exudes the essence of romanticism with its vivid colors and intricate details. In this scene, we witness a fierce battle taking place in the celestial realm. Angels clad in armor clash against each other amidst billowing clouds and heavenly light. Dore's illustrative technique brings life to every stroke of his engraving, capturing the intensity and grandeur of this divine conflict. The wood engraving itself is a testament to Dore's mastery of his craft. Executed by A. Ligny after Gustave Dore's original work, it bears both artists' signatures within the print itself—a mark of authenticity and artistic collaboration. As we gaze upon this vintage masterpiece, we are transported back to a time when historic art reigned supreme. Its Victorian charm adds an air of nostalgia that resonates with lovers of art and culture alike. This print from Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate not only Gustave Dore's genius but also serves as a reminder of the enduring power that art holds over generations—capturing moments frozen in time for all eternity.
