"Fulk-Nerra Assailed by the Phantoms of His Victims" is a dramatic black and white illustration created by the renowned French artist Gustave Doré. The work depicts a scene of a man, likely Fulk Nerra, Count of Anjou, in a bed chamber surrounded by ghostly figures representing his victims. Doré, known for his detailed and often macabre illustrations, uses this image to depict a historical figure grappling with his past and the consequences of his actions. The dark and shadowy tone of the illustration further emphasizes the chilling and unsettling nature of the scene. This work is a testament to Doré's ability to convey emotional weight and historical narratives through his art.
