EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Babylon Fallen Engraving 1870" we are transported back in time to witness a momentous event. The image, taken from Edmund Ollier's renowned collection "The Dore Gallery" showcases Gustave Doré's exceptional talent as an illustrator and etcher. As our eyes delve into the intricate details of this antique engraving, we find ourselves immersed in a scene that evokes both awe and contemplation. The artist skillfully captures the essence of Babylon's downfall, portraying it as a monumental event with profound religious significance. Doré's masterful depiction portrays the ancient city crumbling under its own weight, symbolizing the inevitable fate of all earthly empires. This visual narrative draws inspiration from Dante Alighieri's epic poem, infusing elements of Christian theology and biblical references throughout. The monoprint technique employed here adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its dramatic impact. We cannot help but be drawn towards the central figure of Jesus Christ himself, standing amidst the chaos with an air of serenity and divine authority. This powerful artwork serves as a reminder of humanity's transient nature and our collective journey towards spiritual enlightenment. It invites us to reflect on themes such as faith, redemption, and salvation while marveling at Doré’s artistic prowess. "The Babylon Fallen Engraving 1870" is not just a mere drawing; it is an invitation to explore profound philosophical questions through art – an enduring testament to Gustave Dor
