Capturing all the dramatic intensity of the New Testament, Gustave
Doré's extraordinary interpretations of the life of Jesus have been
carefully reproduced here from early standard editions. Among the many
illustrations are scenes from the Nativity, the Flight into Egypt, The
Last Supper, and the Crucifixion. Each plate is accompanied by a verse
from the King James Version of the Bible.
Included in the set are:
- One CD-ROM containing 63 high-quality, permission-free illustrations
saved in three different formats (600-dpi TIFF and both high resolution
and Internet-ready JPEG)
- A large-format 48-page book, with each of the images on the CD-ROM
printed large and clearly for easy reference
Also included on the CD-ROM is Dover Design Manager, a simple graphics
editing program for Windows.
A splendid collection that anyone would be proud to possess, Dore's
Life of Jesus will have special appeal for art lovers and those
interested in the Scriptures
