EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the year 1870, where we find ourselves immersed in an antique engraving titled "Plague of Jerusalem". The work is part of "The Dore Gallery" a collection curated by Edmund Ollier and published by Cassel, Petter and Galpin. As we gaze upon this haunting image, we are confronted with a depiction of evil that seems to transcend time. Etched into the monoprint with meticulous detail, Gustave Dore's illustration brings to life the biblical narrative of the Plague of Jerusalem. With its roots in Dante's Inferno, this engraving explores themes of spirituality and religion as it portrays an angel overseeing the unfolding tragedy. The artist masterfully captures both despair and hope within his strokes. Intriguingly vertical in composition, this drawing art product invites contemplation on humanity's capacity for sin. It serves as a reminder of the seven deadly sins that have plagued mankind throughout history. Yet amidst this darkness, there is also a glimmering sense of heaven above - an indication that redemption may still be possible. As we admire THEPALMER's skillful capture of this historical piece, our imagination takes flight through time and space. We are transported to old Jerusalem, witnessing firsthand the devastating epidemic that once ravaged its streets. This print not only showcases fine craftsmanship but also prompts reflection on our own existence within the grand tapestry woven by faith and human nature itself.
