{"product_id":"gustave-dore-donkey-skin-the-wedding-procession-fairy-tale-illustration-print","title":"Gustave Doré — Donkey Skin: The Wedding Procession | Fairy Tale Illustration Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eA vast procession advances behind a caparisoned elephant carrying an ornate howdah, and a camel drawing a jewelled carriage; mounted trumpeters, a rider on an ostrich, and small figures with dogs and staffs fill the foreground, while a giraffe and winged cherub-riders appear amid the crowd and sky above. Dense onlookers and banners line both sides of the road. The engraving illustrates Charles Perrault's Peau d'âne, the fantastical royal wedding procession.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGustave Doré (1832–1883) was a French illustrator, painter and sculptor from Strasbourg, and the most prolific and widely reproduced book illustrator of the nineteenth century. Largely self-taught, he was publishing caricatures in Paris at fifteen, and from the late 1850s his wood-engraved plates for Dante's Inferno (1861), Perrault's fairy tales (1862), Cervantes, Milton, the Bible (1866) and Poe's The Raven (1884) fixed the look of those books for generations of readers. Engraved by a workshop led by Héliodore Pisan and Adolphe Pannemaker, his designs combine minute detail with theatrical light, vast landscapes and crowds of figures. From the 1860s he also painted large canvases and Alpine, Scottish and Spanish landscapes, exhibited at the Doré Gallery in London, and turned to sculpture in his last decade. His work is held by the Musée d'Art Moderne et Contemporain de Strasbourg, the Bibliothèque nationale de France, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Art Institute of Chicago.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrinted as a museum-grade giclée on Hahnemühle fine art paper using 12-ink archival pigment printing.
