Säljarens Beskrivning
Original 9 3/4 inch x 7 7/8 inch Engraving titled THE ESCAPE OF DAVID THROUGH THE WINDOW.
King Saul gave his daughter Michal to David in marriage but became jealous of hilm and attempted to have him killed. Michal aware of the plot helped David escape through the window.
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.
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.
