"Some vivid examples of this photographic memory appear in the animals and birds of his La Fontaine.

The little vignettes bursting out of their nutshell format are specially convincing" Gosling. Cassell, Petter, and Galpin unknown books

1868120562London: Cassell Petter and Galpin c. 1868. Famous Dore illustrated edition of Cervantes with 120 full-page wood-<span class="glossaryQtip qTip">engravings</span> and 257 head- and tail-pieces by Gustave Dore engraved in the wood by Heliodore Pisan. Quarto bound in contemporary three quarters leather gilt titles to the spine raised bands illustrations by Dore. With text edited by J.W. Clark and a biographical notice of Cervantes by T. Teignmouth Shore. In near fine condition. One can hardly deny that Gustave Dore is not merely one of the most popular but also one of the greatest of all illustrators. Don Quixote was a text calculated to test even Dore. He was matching himself against Coypel and Tony Johannot not to mention the Spanish illustrators of the great Ibarra edition published in Madrid in 1780. He met the challenge superbly. At first he intended only 40 designs but Cervantes' book captured his imagination and he arranged for a major work. Don Quixote and Sancho Panza reached their definitive rendering in Dore's designs" Ray 328-29 337. The English-language edition of Dore's Don Quixote first appeared in 30 monthly parts beginning in December 1864. In September of 1866 Cassell announced the publication of Don Quixote in book form. "In those two and a half years Dore went from being virtually unknown in England to being the most famous illustrator in the world" Malan 67. Cassell, Petter, and Galpin hardcover books
