EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Gustave Dore's masterpiece, "Paolo and Francesca da Rimini" painted in 1863. The oil on canvas painting measures an impressive 280.6 x 193.6cm and is currently held in a private collection. The artwork depicts the tragic love story of Paolo and Francesca da Rimini, set against a dark, moonlit night. In this nineteenth-century scene, we see a small group of people outdoors, surrounded by hills and natural space. The artist skillfully captures the emotion of the moment as Paolo embraces Francesca while they float above the ground. Dore's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, from the texture of their clothing to the expressions on their faces. The couple appears deeply in love, with arms wrapped tightly around each other as they soar through the air. The romantic atmosphere created by Dore transports viewers back to a time when passion and emotion were celebrated through art. This piece exemplifies both French Romanticism and Italian art influences prevalent during that period. As you gaze upon this stunning print, you can't help but be drawn into the narrative unfolding before your eyes—a timeless tale of forbidden love captured forever on canvas by one of Europe's most talented artists.
