EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a dramatic scene from John Milton's epic poem, Paradise Lost. Engraved by Huyot in 1868 and based on Gustave Dore's original artwork, it depicts the intense confrontation between Abdiel and Satan during the war in heaven. In this powerful image, we see Abdiel, a loyal angel who remains steadfast against Satan's rebellion. With his sword raised high and wings spread wide, he exudes strength and determination as he confronts the fallen angel. The dark clouds swirling around them symbolize the chaos of their battle. Satan, portrayed with menacing presence, stands defiantly before Abdiel. His twisted horns and fiery eyes reveal his demonic nature while his tattered wings signify his fall from grace. This visual representation captures the eternal struggle between good and evil that lies at the heart of Milton's masterpiece. The intricate details of this engraving bring to life the intensity of this pivotal moment in Paradise Lost. It serves as a reminder of humanity's constant battle against temptation and our capacity for both righteousness and rebellion. Displayed within private collections worldwide, this remarkable piece continues to inspire viewers with its timeless depiction of bravery amidst darkness.
