EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the intense and dramatic scene of "Satan Rising from the Burning Lake" from John Milton's epic poem, Paradise Lost. Etched by Scottish artist William Strang in 1896, this illustration is part of a limited edition series that brings to life the vivid imagery found within Milton's words. In this particular image, Satan emerges triumphantly from the fiery depths of hell, his wings spread wide as he ascends towards the heavens. The flames surrounding him symbolize both his own damnation and the eternal torment that awaits him and his fellow fallen angels. Strang's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this lithograph. From Satan's menacing expression to the intricate depiction of fire and smoke, each element contributes to creating a sense of awe-inspiring power and darkness. This artwork serves as a visual representation of Milton's exploration of Christian mythology and biblical themes throughout Paradise Lost. It encapsulates not only Satan's rebellion against God but also his determination to establish his reign in hell alongside Beelzebub and other fallen angels. As we gaze upon this rare print, we are reminded of Milton's mastery as a poet and Strang's skill as an illustrator. Together, they bring forth an unforgettable portrayal of one man’s fall from grace and its profound consequences for all humanity.
