That work, however, in its entirety, was far +too costly for the larger and ever-widening circle of M. Dore's +admirers, and to meet the felt and often-expressed want of this +class, and to provide a volume of choice and valuable designs +upon sacred subjects for art-loving Biblical students generally, +this work was projected and has been carried forward. The aim has +been to introduce subjects of general interest—that is, those +relating to the most prominent events and personages of +Scripture—those most familiar to all readers; the plates being +chosen with special reference to the known taste of the American +people. To each cut is prefixed a page of letter-press—in, +narrative form, and containing generally a brief analysis of the +design. Aside from the labors of the editor and publishers, the +work, while in progress, was under the pains-taking and careful +scrutiny of artists and scholars not directly interested in the +undertaking, but still having a generous solicitude for its +success. It is hoped, therefore, that its general plan and +execution will render it acceptable both to the appreciative and +friendly patrons of the great artist, and to those who would wish +to possess such a work solely as a choice collection of +illustrations upon sacred themes.</p> +<br><br><br><br> +<center><h2>GUSTAVE DORE.</h2></center> +<br> +<p>The subject of this sketch is, perhaps, the most original and +variously gifted designer the world has ever known. At an age +when most men have scarcely passed their novitiate in art, and +are still under the direction and discipline of their masters and +the schools, he had won a brilliant reputation, and readers and +scholars everywhere were gazing on his work with ever-increasing +wonder and delight at his fine fancy and multifarious gifts. He +has raised illustrative art to a dignity and importance before +unknown, and has developed capacities for the pencil before +unsuspected. He has laid all subjects tribute to his genius, +explored and embellished fields hitherto lying waste, and opened +new and shining paths and vistas where none before had trod. To +the works of the great he has added the lustre of his genius, +bringing their beauties into clearer view and warming them to a +fuller life.</p> + +<p>His delineations of character, in the different phases of +life, from the horrible to the grotesque, the grand to the comic, +attest the versatility of his powers; and, whatever faults may be +found by critics, the public will heartily render their quota of +admiration to his magic touch, his rich and facile rendering of +almost every thought that stirs, or lies yet dormant, in the +human heart. It is useless to attempt a sketch of his various +beauties; those who would know them best must seek them in the +treasure—house that his genius is constantly augmenting with +fresh gems and wealth. To one, however, of his most prominent +traits we will refer—his wonderful rendering of the powers of +Nature.</p> + +<p>His early wanderings in the wild and romantic passes of the +Vosges doubtless developed this inherent tendency of his mind. +There he wandered, and there, mayhap, imbibed that deep delight +of wood and valley, mountain—pass and rich ravine, whose variety +of form and detail seems endless to the enchanted eye. He has +caught the very spell of the wilderness; she has laid her hand +upon him, and he has gone forth with her blessing. So bold and +truthful and minute are his countless representations of forest +scenery; so delicate the tracery of branch and stem; so +patriarchal the giant boles of his woodland monarchs, that the' +gazer is at once satisfied and entranced. His vistas lie +slumbering with repose either in shadowy glade or fell ravine, +either with glint of lake or the glad, long course of some +rejoicing stream, and above all, supreme in a beauty all its own, +he spreads a canopy of peerless sky, or a wilderness, perhaps, of +angry storm, or peaceful stretches of soft, fleecy cloud, or +heavens serene and fair—another kingdom to his teeming art, +after the earth has rendered all her gifts.</p> + +<p>Paul Gustave Dore was born in the city of Strasburg, January +10, 1833. Of his boyhood we have no very particular account. At +eleven years of age, however, he essayed his first artistic +creation—a set' of lithographs, published in his native city. +The following year found him in Paris, entered as a 7. student at +the Charlemagne Lyceum. His first actual work began in 1848, when +his fine series of sketches, the "Labors of Hercules," was given +to the public through the medium of an illustrated, journal with +which he was for a long time connected as designer. In 1856 were +published the illustrations for Balzac's "Contes Drolatiques" and +those for "The Wandering Jew "—the first humorous and grotesque +in the highest degree—indeed, showing a perfect abandonment to +fancy; the other weird and supernatural, with fierce battles, +shipwrecks, turbulent mobs, and nature in her most forbidding and +terrible aspects. Every incident or suggestion that could +possibly make the story more effective, or add to the horror of +the scenes was seized upon and portrayed with wonderful power. +These at once gave the young designer a great reputation, which +was still more enhanced by his subsequent works.</p> + +<p>With all his love for nature and his power of interpreting her +in her varying moods, Dore was a dreamer, and many of his finest +achievements were in the realm of the imagination. But he was at +home in the actual world also, as witness his designs for +"Atala," "London—a Pilgrimage," and many of the scenes in "Don +Quixote."</p> + +<p>When account is taken of the variety of his designs, and the +fact considered that in almost every task he attempted none had +ventured before him, the amount of work he accomplished is fairly +incredible. To enumerate the immense tasks he undertook—some +single volumes alone containing hundreds of illustrations—will +give some faint idea of his industry. Besides those already +mentioned are Montaigne, Dante, the Bible, Milton, Rabelais, +Tennyson's "Idyls of the King," "The Ancient Mariner, +Shakespeare, "Legende de Croquemitaine," La Fontaine's "Fables," +and others still.</p> + +<p>Take one of these works—the Dante, La Fontaine, or "Don +Quixote"—and glance at the pictures. The mere hand labor +involved in their production is surprising; but when the quality +of the work is properly estimated, what he accomplished seems +prodigious. No particular mention need be made of him as painter +or sculptor, for his reputation rests solely upon his work as an +illustrator.</p> + +<p>Dore's nature was exuberant and buoyant, and he was youthful +in appearance. He had a passion for music, possessed rare skill +as a violinist, and it is assumed that, had he failed to succeed +with his pencil, he could have won a brilliant reputation as a +musician.</p> + +<p>He was a bachelor, and lived a quiet, retired life with his +mother—married, as he expressed it, to her and his art. His +death occurred on January 23, 1883.</p> +<br><br><br><br> + +<center> +<table summary="Illustrations"> +<tr><td> +<h2>LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS</h2> +<br> + +<a href="#front">GUSTAVE DORE</a><br> +<a href="#079">JESUS AND THE WOMAN TAKEN IN ADULTERY</a><br> +<a href="#080">THE RESURRECTION OF LAZARUS</a><br> +<a href="#081">MARY MAGDALENE</a><br> +<a href="#082">THE LAST SUPPER</a><br> +<a href="#083">THE AGONY IN THE GARDEN</a><br> +<a href="#084">PRAYER OF JESUS IN THE GARDEN OF OLIVES</a><br> +<a href="#085">THE BETRAYAL</a><br> +<a href="#086">CHRIST FAINTING UNDER THE CROSS</a><br> +<a href="#087">THE FLAGELLATION</a><br> +<a href="#088">THE CRUCIFIXION</a><br> +<a href="#089">CLOSE OF THE CRUCIFIXION</a><br> + + + + + + +</td></tr> +</table> +</center> + + + +<br><br> +<a name="079"></a> +<br><br> +<center> +<h2>JESUS AND THE WOMAN TAKEN IN ADULTERY.</h2> +<br><br> +<a href="images/079.jpg"><img alt="079th.jpg (37K)" src="images/079th.jpg" height="481" width="381"></a> +</center> +<br> + +<p>Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.

We first hear of her as having been +delivered by Jesus of seven devils (Luke viii, 1-3; Mark xvi, 9). +Impelled, no doubt, by gratitude for her deliverance, she becomes +one of his followers, accompanying him thenceforward in all his +wanderings faithfully till his death. She was the first person to +whom he appeared after his resurrection (Mark xvi, 9; John xx, 1, +11-18) The common belief that she was a fallen woman is destitute +of the slightest foundation. On the contrary, the references to +her as being in the company of such women as Joanna, the wife of +Herod's steward, Salome, the mother of James and John, and Mary, +the mother of Jesus (Luke viii, 3; Mark xvi, 40; John xix, 25), +strongly discountenance such a supposition. The error, which had +no other source than ecclesiastical tradition, has been fostered +and perpetuated by the stupid blunder of the translators of the +authorized version in identifying her with the "sinner" who is +described in Luke vii, 37-50 as washing the feet of Jesus with +her tears (see head-note to Luke vii).</p> + +<p>The Roman Catholic notion that this "sinner" was Mary the +sister of Lazarus is almost equally groundless (see Douay Bible, +head-note to Matthew xxvi, and the foot-note references to Luke +vii, 37, found in most Catholic Bibles). The only reason for this +identification is that the anointing by the "sinner" is described +as taking place in the house of a Pharisee named Simon (Luke vii, +36, 39-40 43-44); that the anointing by the unnamed woman, as +described in Matthew xxvi, 6-13 and Mark xiv, 3-9, took place in +the house of one "Simon the leper," in Bethany; and that Mary, +the sister of Lazarus, is described in John xi, 2, and xii, 3-8, +as anointing Jesus in a house (apparently that of Lazarus +himself) in Bethany, when a conversation ensues altogether +different from that recorded in Luke vii, but similar to that +related in Matthew xxvi, and Mark xiv, save that the objection to +the anointing of Jesus is made, not by "his disciples" (Matthew +xxvi, 8), not by "some that had indignation" (Mark xiv, 4), but +by "one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son" (John xii, +4). The demeanor of Mary, the sister of Lazarus, is, however, by +no means that of a fallen and sinful though penitent woman but +that of a pious and good one (see Luke x, 39, 42; John xi, 28-33; +xii, 3).</p> + +<p>Dore's illustration, which portrays Mary Magdalene as a +heartbroken and despairing sinner, shows that he has fallen into +the common error.</p> + +<br><br> +<a name="082"></a> +<br><br> +<center> +<h2>THE LAST SUPPER.</h2> +<br><br> +<a href="images/082.jpg"><img alt="082th.jpg (34K)" src="images/082th.jpg" height="481" width="383"></a> +</center> +<br> + +<p>Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the +disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we +prepare for thee to eat the passover?

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> + |
