The Conference with the Angel Raphael, from Book V of Paradise Lost
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports viewers to the mythical Garden of Eden. Engraved by Montvalson in 1868 after Gustave Dore's original work, this piece beautifully captures John Milton's epic poem and its biblical themes. In this enchanting scene, we witness Adam and Eve engaging in an intense conversation with the angelic figure of Raphael. The tropical paradise surrounding them exudes perfection and innocence, symbolizing the prelapsarian state before humanity's fall from grace. Raphael's presence serves as a warning to our first ancestors, reminding them of their duty to obey God's commandments. As they stand there naked yet unashamed, their nudity represents purity and vulnerability within this divine setting. The exquisite details in Dore's engraving bring forth a sense of awe and wonderment. Every stroke showcases his mastery in capturing both human emotion and celestial beauty. This print not only celebrates Christian beliefs but also highlights the power of artistic interpretation in conveying religious narratives. As we gaze upon "The Conference with the Angel Raphael" we are transported back to a time when creation was perfect, untouched by sin or suffering. It invites us to reflect on our own spiritual journey while appreciating the profound impact that Milton's words have had on generations past and present.
