This awe-inspiring piece depicts the divine judgment upon humanity, displaying Doré's mastery of detail and composition. Similarly, Moses descending from Mount Sinai with the tablets of the law showcases his skill in capturing biblical narratives. Gustave Dore's artistic prowess extended beyond religious subjects; he also depicted urban landscapes such as Ludgate Hill in London and Limehouse Dock in 1872. Through these pieces, he showcased not only architectural details but also conveyed a sense of atmosphere unique to each location. Thence issuing we again beheld the stars is another masterpiece by Doré that transports viewers into a celestial realm filled with wonderment.
