"The Murder of Abel" is a notable artwork by the French artist, printmaker, and illustrator Gustave Doré, created in the 19th century. This work is part of Doré's extensive oeuvre, which includes illustrations for major literary works as well as original compositions. "The Murder of Abel" depicts the biblical story of Cain and Abel from the Book of Genesis, where Cain, driven by jealousy, commits the first murder by killing his brother Abel.

Gustave Doré (1832–1883) was renowned for his detailed and imaginative illustrations that often featured dramatic and emotional scenes. His work on "The Murder of Abel" is no exception, showcasing his mastery of composition and his ability to convey intense narrative moments. The artwork is characterized by its stark depiction of the pivotal moment, capturing both the act and the subsequent remorse that follows.

Doré's interpretation of this biblical event is imbued with a sense of darkness and tragedy, reflecting the artist's interest in the themes of human fallibility and divine justice. The piece is executed with the intricate detail and expressive style that are hallmarks of Doré's work, making it a significant example of his artistic legacy.

As with many of Doré's pieces, "The Murder of Abel" has been influential in the visual arts, contributing to the iconography of this biblical story and inspiring subsequent artists and illustrators in their own renditions of the tale. The artwork remains an important part of Doré's contribution to 19th-century art and continues to be studied for its technical skill and emotional impact.
