Summary

One of the most popular (and most prolific) illustrators of all time, Gustave Dore (1832-1883) established his reputation with works of art that embodied romantic style, abundant details, and a dramatic use of light and shade. This collection, reproduced from an extremely rare original edition, includes 236 powerful illustrations the artist created during an extended journey through Spain in the 1860s and 1870s. Dore was accompanied by his friend Baron Jean-Charles Davillier, an art scholar, writer, and experienced Spanish traveler, who had arranged to sell his account of their journey, illustrated by Dore, to the French publisher Hachette. The two crossed the border near Perpignan in the south of France, and began their journey in the north of Spain near Barcelona. They then continued down the east coast to Andalusia in the far south, then back up through the interior of the country, stopping at Cordoba, Toledo, Avila, Salamanca, Burgos, Bilbao, and many other cities, towns, and villages. They finally ended their years-long excursion in the Balearic Islands.

Author Biography

French illustrator Gustave Doré (1833-83) began his prolific career at the age of 15, and his dramatic engravings have exercised an incalculable influence over latter-day artists. The remarkable scope of his work ranges from Milton, Dante, and the Bible to Rabelais, Shakespeare, and street scenes of 19th-century London.
