> "Doré never married and, following the death of his father in 1849, he continued to live with his mother, illustrating books until his death in Paris following a short illness. The city's Père Lachaise Cemetery contains his grave. At the time of his death, he was working on illustrations for an edition of Shakespeare's plays. The government of France made him a Chevalier de la Legion d'honneur in 1861."

Yup, definitely /lit/. He would have been totally kino and a NEET had he lived nowadays

Roberto Ferri. He's a contemporary italian painter heavily inspired by Caravaggio who paints classical and biblical themes with a very original sensibility.
Scrutonites and similiar retards never talk about him because they're too busy jerking off to hentai.

I like Ferri, but Dore is still more /lit/.

Byron is more /lit/ than Dore though.

I guess crashing with your folks is just a natural part of the artists' life! Where else would one find the time... Of course, I'm just saying that I make myself feel better for a Hot Second :^)

Dore is the best.
