3-D Dore' Wonderfulness


Paul Gustave Dore' (1832-'83) is one of my favorite illustrators. So it goes without saying that this terrific giant bronze urn covered in cherubium, grapes and vines, enormous insects and satyrs all scrambling around in Bacchanalian joy is one of my favorite things in Golden Gate Park. If moths were this big, I'd probably want to hug them too.
