Courtesy of the Center for the Book at the Library of Congress, the 1884 edition of Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" (with illustrations by Gustave Doré) has been digitized, as well as an 1875 French translation of the poem by Stéphane Mallarmé (with illustrations by famed painter and Mallarmé friend Edouard Manet).About the image: Illustration by Gustave Doré from Poe's "The Raven" (New York: Harper, 1884)
Ah, thank you for the heads-up! I've actually been hoping some public-minded souls would digitize that one of these days...
ReplyDeleteThe illustrations in both books are very cool.
