EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting illustration from the Dore Bible, created by the talented French artist Gustave Dore in 1866, depicts a scene of devastation as the Plague strikes Jerusalem. The detailed engraving captures the chaos and despair of this biblical event, with crowds of people suffering from illness and lying on the ground.
Dore's skillful use of light and shadow creates a dramatic atmosphere, emphasizing the severity of the situation. The dark clouds in the sky add to the sense of impending doom, while figures stand helplessly by, unable to prevent or stop the spread of disease.
The intricate details in this print showcase Dore's mastery as an artist, capturing both emotion and action in a single image. The composition draws viewers into the scene, allowing them to witness firsthand the horrors unfolding in Jerusalem during this tragic time.
As one of 241 wood engravings commissioned for La Grande Bible de Tours, this illustration is just one example of Dore's incredible talent and ability to bring biblical stories to life through his art. It serves as a powerful reminder of the fragility of human life and our vulnerability to forces beyond our control.
