1866 Gustave Doré Legend Of The Wandering Jew Crossing River Plate 5 - Original Antique Engraving - Gothic Medieval Christian - 14 x 20 in
Antique steel engraving depicting the cursed Wandering Jew crossing turbulent waters beneath crumbling ruins. From "The Legend of the Wandering Jew" published by Cassell Petter & Galpin in 1866 after illustrations by Gustave Doré and engraved after Rouget. Page measures 14 × 20 in.
Finely engraved steel plate with dramatic chiaroscuro effects showing solitary figure navigating rough river in foreground, overgrown medieval ruins rising on cliffs above. Monochromatic tones create atmospheric Gothic mood with detailed linework throughout landscape and architectural elements.
Great for collectors of religious art, Gothic literature enthusiasts, and Doré illustration specialists.
