This dramatic black and white illustration by French artist Gustave Doré, a master of the macabre, depicts Satan in the aftermath of his fall from Heaven. The fallen angel, with broken wings and a look of anguish on his face, lies prone on the ground, suggesting the immense power of God and the gravity of his defeat. This image, likely inspired by biblical text, is a powerful testament to Doré's talent for creating emotionally charged scenes, captivating audiences with his detailed and impactful depictions of historical and literary narratives.
