From his vision of Jacob Wrestling with the Angel to Crossing the River Styx, the work of this most prodigious and much borrowed-from artist is represented in glorious full-page reproductions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dan Malan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1804177865\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781804177860\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Flame Tree Illustrated\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/12\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 8.30w x 0.80d","brand":"Dan Malan","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44583924793599,"sku":"9781804177860","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_94fc2755-de40-4027-b2cb-1faa81abd3b4.jpg?v=1701884291","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gustave-dore-masterpieces-of-art-dan-malan-9781804177860","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
