EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration from the renowned book "Gargantua and Pantagruel" by Rabelais, dating back to 1854. The artwork was skillfully crafted by Gustave Dore (1832-1883), a prominent artist of his time. This particular piece is part of a private collection, adding to its rarity and allure. The image depicts a scene filled with vibrant colors and intricate details, capturing the essence of this literary masterpiece. Through Dore's masterful technique, we are transported into the fantastical world created by Rabelais, where giants Gargantua and Pantagruel embark on extraordinary adventures. Painted in Russia during the 19th century, this oil-on-canvas composition exemplifies the fine artistry prevalent in Russian painting at that time. Sergei Ivanovich Gribkov (1820-1893) is credited as one of the notable artists behind this genre. This remarkable print not only serves as a visual delight but also pays homage to two great minds - Rabelais for his imaginative storytelling and Dore for his artistic brilliance. It invites us to delve into their shared legacy while appreciating the fusion of literature and art.
