Säljarens Beskrivning
Original 9 3/4 inch x 7 3/4 inch Engraving titled ABISHAI SAVING THE LIFE OF DAVID.
Abishai was the eldest son of Zeruiah, sister of the biblical King David. He was the brother of Joab and Asahel, and a military leader under David.
Illustration by Gustave Doré (1832 - 1883). The most popular and successful French book illustrator of the middle of the 19th century. Doré became widely known for his illustrations to such books as Danté’s Inferno (1861), Don Quixote (1862), and the Bible (1866), and he helped to give European currency to the illustrated book of large format. He was so prolific that at one time he employed more than forty wood engravers. His work is characterized by an eclectic mix of Michelangelesque nudes, northern traditions of sublime landscape, and a highly spirited love of the grotesque and bizarre.
Engraved by Alexandre Hurel.
From Doré’s illustrated edition of the Bible 1866.
This edition from Cassell’s ‘Doré Gallery’ published in 1885.
Page size 12 1/4 inch x 9 1/8 inch
The engraving is in very good condition. Reverse side blank.
