Gustave Doré's "Elijah Is Nourished by an Angel" is a black and white engraving that depicts a scene from the Bible. The image shows the prophet Elijah sitting beneath a tree while an angel, with outstretched wings, hovers above him. The angel is depicted as a slender, ethereal figure, while Elijah is portrayed as a tired, weary man. The image's dramatic composition and detailed rendering, characteristic of Doré's style, powerfully convey the biblical story of Elijah's divine sustenance during his journey.
