There's a series of books that collect his stuff from certain projects, like the bible for example, and there's biographical stuff about Gustav in the intro.

I've got 4 of them(bible, paradise, infero, don quixote) I definitely recommend picking them up if you're into his work.

That's not how it is done. The scratchboard just copies the style of the prints. Doré's work is carved in wood and then printed, it is a much more sophisticated process.

Originally everything was engraved in wood, but that shit was expensive, so he switched to electrotyping as soon as that came around.

Basically he would draw on a wooden block, let a bunch of other nigggers engrave it(Fun fact: H.Pisan was a good friend of Dore and considered his best engraver), and then sent it off to the presses.

>let a bunch of other nigggers engrave it
Yeah a lot of people who claim to be Dore fans just like the etching parts of it, they comment on the thin line and hatching and whatnot, but that stuff was all done by the engraver and not by Dore. Dore was more of a painter and caricaturist.

What!? I never knew that. So what did his actual drawings look like? Some kind of rough penciling?

>>2231852
Even though it's not literarily drawn on stone ... it's still really insightful into how to approach Dore level hatching. I just try to take away the drawing technique

Anyone know what size radipograph he is using?

Then why did he take all of the credit? That's a real dick thing to do.

For the same reason mangaka take the credit for their art, even when they have a legion of assistants to do backgrounds. it's how the business works. Painters did the same thing - with a joshua reynolds or reubens or David you can only be sure that the main figures were painted by the master.
