EDITORS COMMENTS
Enter this inn, plate IV - Illustration by Gustave Dore (1832-1883) captures the essence of a captivating and mysterious scene from La legende du Jeif wandering. This enchanting print, created in 1862, showcases Dore's exceptional talent for storytelling through his intricate engravings. In this particular illustration, we are transported to an old French street where an aged Jewish man stands before an inviting inn. The worn sign hanging above him beckons passersby to enter and discover what lies within. A young girl gazes curiously at the man, perhaps intrigued by his ancient appearance or captivated by the secrets he may hold. Dore masterfully conveys a sense of timelessness and immortality through his depiction of the characters. The contrast between youth and old age is striking as it highlights both the transience of life and the enduring nature of human experiences. The composition exudes a certain air of mystery, with hints of religious symbolism intertwined throughout. It invites viewers to ponder upon themes such as faith, destiny, and the passage of time. Leonard de Selva's expertly captured photograph preserves every intricate detail present in Dore's original work. Through this image, we are granted a glimpse into a moment frozen in history – a testament to both artistic brilliance and cultural heritage.
