The Illustration's of Gustave Doré

I have some books with Gustave Dore´s illustrations, I think he was a great illustrator.
Most of the illustrations are black and white but very expressive.

My favorites are Dore´s illustrations for

Idyll of the King (Tennyson)
Paradise Lost ( Milton)
Devine Comedy ( Dante) there are a lot more

You can find some of his Illustration's here
