“The Trial Before the Descent”

£549.99

A jacket that travels through time.

This piece blends three distinct works by Gustave Doré — each one capturing a moment from the arc of descent. From judgment to purgation, and finally into the unknown. The imagery wraps across the body in sequence, with each panel acting as a stage in the narrative. Every painting was carefully placed to reflect this transition — stitched into one wearable timeline.

Built from heavyweight duck canvas, digitally printed and overdyed by hand. Fully lined in a historic textile map of Florence with a double-layered collar, reinforced stitching, and multiple custom closures. Quilted throughout for structure and form.

This is the second APOR (Artists Print On Reality) garment ever made. Signed and labeled inside.

Details:

  • One-of-one jacket (never to be remade)

  • Art by Gustave Doré, remixed across the canvas

  • Handmade from scratch in Bournemouth, UK

  • Quilted body for warmth + durability

  • Three front pockets (one with concealed snap closure)

  • Fully lined in printed archival fabric

  • Signature interior patch showing cathedral floor plan

  • Label signed “GARMGOBLIN // APOR_02”

Sizing:

Boxy fit — tagged size XL but suits L comfortably.
