Gustave Doré Art for Sale at Auction

Sculptor, Painter, Caricaturist, Illustrator, Water colorist, b. 1832 - d. 1883

Gustave Dore's drawings and graphic illustrations for books, including some fantasy-themed King Arthur pieces, are among his most recognized works. Later in his career, his skill with engraving would lead him to etching illustrations in wood. Though he was a proficient artist, during his later years Gustave Dore often received criticism for his works; he used very little color and often created negative and extremely graphic drawings. Gustave Dore prints and paintings were never truly defined by any genre or medium, but his later pieces leaned toward Romanticism.

He also produced works in oil and watercolors. Gustave Dore prints, such those that depict angels, the crucifixion, and other religious scenes, are based on inspiration he received from life, history, and faith. He died in 1883.
