Paradise Lost....Gustave Dore Engravings

For my Secret 7" brief I have done an etching of my Beast
illustration, whilst doing this I came across some beautiful
etchings by Gustave Dore in an version of John Miltons Paradise Lost,
the engravings are also fittings in relation to what I am doing as
Paradise Lost looks at the Christian story of the Fall from Grace
so looks at themes such as hell and the devil, linking into the idea of the beast.
The engravings are so detailed and precise, I would love to be
able to achieve etchings like this in the future.
