Gustave Dore (1832-1883)
New York: Cassell Publishing, c. 1890

French artist Gustave Doré (1832–1883) illustrated many books with richly imaginative wood engravings. His large, two-volume Bible was an expensive production, but the edition of 100 select images with accompanying narrative descriptions was issued at a more moderate cost to reach a larger audience.
