Dore does it again! July 5, 1998
10 out of 13 found this review helpful
Beautiful, lyrical,and sensuous images from the Crusades.I am enraprured by the scope,graphic power and compositional greatness of this largely forgotten artist. Though we may look at the politics of the Crusades differently than the Victorians, this book is sure to please any fan of 19th century art. One look at Dore and you see where Cecil B. Demille got much of his inspiration.
