This engraving by Gustave Doré, titled "Daniel's Vision of the Four Beasts," depicts a scene from the biblical Book of Daniel, chapter 7. The artwork showcases Doré's characteristic dramatic style with dark, shadowy figures. The four beasts are represented by large, imposing silhouettes rising out of a tumultuous sea, echoing the powerful and ominous tone of the vision. This scene, full of dramatic contrasts, serves as a compelling visual interpretation of the biblical passage and reflects the artist's mastery of engraving and storytelling through art.
