EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Water Falling Paradise Lost" we are transported to a realm of both beauty and darkness. Engraved by the talented Gustave Dore in 1885, this piece draws inspiration from John Milton's epic poem, Paradise Lost. As our eyes wander through the intricate details, we find ourselves immersed in a world that explores profound themes of evil, hell, heaven, and redemption. Dore's masterful strokes bring to life the vivid imagery described by Milton as he delves into the depths of human nature and spirituality. The central focus is on a mesmerizing waterfall cascading down with an ethereal glow that seems to emanate from within. It symbolizes the fall of mankind and their expulsion from paradise due to temptation and disobedience. The presence of demons lurking amidst the tumultuous waters reminds us of Dante's Inferno, another influential work that explored similar themes centuries earlier. These demonic figures serve as a reminder of humanity's constant struggle between good and evil. Yet among these dark elements emerge angelic beings soaring above, representing hope and divine intervention. This juxtaposition hints at the possibility for redemption even in times when all seems lost. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking engraving by THEPALMER from Fine Art Storehouse, it serves as a visual testament to humanity's eternal quest for meaning within religious narratives such as those found in Christianity.
