EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Gustave Dore's digitally colored engraving of "Purgatorio, Canto 25: The lustful pass through fire in the seventh circle" an illustration from Dante Alighieri's epic poem, The Divine Comedy. Created in 1885, this masterpiece takes us on a visual journey through the depths of Purgatory. In this particular scene, we witness the punishment for those consumed by lust. The souls condemned to the seventh circle must traverse through raging flames as they seek purification and redemption. Dore's intricate details bring forth the intensity and agony experienced by these tormented spirits. Dante Alighieri, renowned Italian author and poet of the 13th century, crafted Divina Commedia as a profound exploration of human nature and morality. Through his vivid descriptions and allegorical storytelling, he delves into themes such as sin, virtue, love, and salvation. Giancarlo Costa expertly captures Dore's powerful engraving with finesse. This artwork not only serves as a testament to Dante's literary genius but also highlights Gustave Dore's exceptional talent in bringing words to life through art. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we are reminded of the timeless allure of literature and its ability to inspire artists across generations. It invites us to reflect on our own desires and contemplate the consequences that may arise from unchecked passions.
