Gustave Doré, Death Comes on a Pale Horse, Biblical Tinted Engraving, Satin Poster

Gustave Doré’s “Death Comes on a Pale Horse” is a chilling engraving that portrays the inevitability of death and the passage of time. Galloping across a desolate landscape, a skeletal rider shrouded in darkness commands a pale horse. Sinister demons trail behind, their twisted forms embodying the chaos and despair that accompany death’s arrival. Doré’s meticulous attention to detail and skillful play of light and shadow create an atmosphere of foreboding in this illustration from the Bible, reminding viewers of life’s fleeting nature and the inescapable grip of mortality. The engraving has been carefully tinted to heighten the drama of the original image.
