Gustave Doré, a renowned French artist known for his dramatic and detailed illustrations, created this wood engraving titled *Idylls of the King*. Doré's work captures the spirit of Arthurian legend, with a focus on knights on horseback, a fallen log, and a looming, mysterious castle in the distance. The dark and moody atmosphere evokes a sense of foreboding and adventure, making this image a powerful and captivating representation of the famous tales.
