1866 The War in Heaven Print from Paradise Lost Illustrated by Gustave Doré

Description: And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. --Revelations 12:7-10 Gustave Doré, a 19th-century French artist, was a master illustrator whose work continues to resonate today. Renowned for his dramatic and detailed style, Doré left a lasting impact on the world of literature through his illustrations for some of the greatest classics. One of his most celebrated achievements is his series of illustrations for John Milton's epic poem, Paradise Lost. Published in 1866, these engravings brought Milton's powerful words to life with stunning visuals. Doré's dark and imaginative depictions perfectly captured the grandeur of creation, the rebellion of the fallen angels, and the poignant story of Adam and Eve. We guarantee this to be a genuine antique print. We never sell facsimiles or modern reproductions.
