François Rabelais, the great Renaissance writer, is best known for Gargantua and Pantagruel, a satirical novel about two gluttonous giants who get into trouble.

To pay homage to the genius, we’ve gathered for you some great illustrations of Gargantua and Pantagruel by another genius, painter Gustave Doré, whose work was definitely inspired by Dark Souls – so atmospheric and full of creepy characters.
