"Jephthah's Daughter and Her Companions" is an artwork by the French artist Gustave Doré, renowned for his detailed and imaginative illustrations. This particular piece depicts a scene from the biblical story of Jephthah, as recounted in the Book of Judges in the Hebrew Bible. The narrative involves Jephthah, a judge of Israel, who makes a vow to God that if he is granted victory over the Ammonites, he will sacrifice the first thing that comes out of his house to greet him upon his return. Unfortunately, his daughter is the first to welcome him, leading to a tragic fulfillment of his vow.

Doré's illustration captures the poignant moment when Jephthah's daughter, realizing the implications of her father's vow, resigns herself to her fate. She is often depicted surrounded by her companions, who mourn with her as she prepares to be sacrificed. The artwork is emblematic of Doré's dramatic style, characterized by his use of stark contrasts and his ability to convey deep emotion and narrative complexity.

Gustave Doré was a prolific artist, and his illustrations for literary works, including the Bible, Dante's "Divine Comedy," and Cervantes's "Don Quixote," among others, have garnered widespread acclaim. "Jephthah's Daughter and Her Companions" is one of many biblical scenes he illustrated, showcasing his skill in bringing these ancient stories to life with a sense of grandeur and pathos. Doré's work has had a lasting impact on the visual arts, influencing the realms of book illustration and beyond.

While "Jephthah's Daughter and Her Companions" is a lesser-known work compared to Doré's most famous illustrations, it remains a testament to his mastery of the medium and his ability to evoke powerful emotions through his art. The piece is a valuable addition to the collection of Doré's biblical illustrations and continues to be studied for its artistic and cultural significance.
