Info created by Gustave Doré - uploaded and nominated by Adam Cuerden -- Adam Cuerden (talk) 23:27, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
Info Charon, in Gustave Doré's illustrations for Dante's Divine Comedy.
Info A version of this was nominated before (same file name, I just uploaded over) - it nearly passed, but then I noticed that the modern edition was cropped, and couldn't in good faith leave it to be promoted. However, since then I have been able to find a cheap (as rather beat up) Victorian edition of Doré's illustrations of the Inferno, which has the full images for all 76 engravings. Adam Cuerden (talk)
