Gustave Dore Masterpieces of Art by Dan Malan
The supremely talented, prodigious and influential artist Gustave Dore is best known for his intricate engravings illustrating everything from the Bible to Don Quixote and The Divine Comedy. This gorgeous book introduces you to his life, work and legacy before presenting a carefully curated selection of his finest engravings.Dan Malan has written dozens of Doré books, articles, and reference work contributions, and owns the world’s largest private Doré collection: books, periodicals, prints and Doreana, including over 800 reference volumes. He has loaned hundreds of items to recent Doré exhibitions, and was guest speaker at the 2014 Doré exhibition at the National Gallery of Canada. He recently assisted the National Library of Russia on Doré research for a book which shows colour photos of every – very rare – Russian Doré edition prior to the 1917 Revolution. His website can be found at www.doreana.com and a newsletter is planned for Doré fans and collectors. ‘Dan Malan is the world’s number one Doré collector.’ Paul Lang (Director, Strasbourg Museums)
