DORÉ (Gustave). - DUPONT (Pierre). The Legend... - Lot 50 - Giquello
DORÉ (Gustave). - DUPONT (Pierre). The Legend of the Wandering Jew. Paris, Michel Levy, 1856. Large folio, hardback, first cover illustrated, green percaline spine (publisher's binding). Striking illustration by Gustave Doré: frontispiece (also reproduced on the cover) and 12 plates in the first edition. One cannot praise too much the mastery developed here by the three engravers, skilful and happy interpreters of Doré, whose drawings they executed on wood with a vigour of tones that it is difficult to surpass. (Leblanc, p. 217) Some foxing.
