The Divine Comedy

Dante’s masterpiece of literature is well matched by the peerless art of Gustave Doré. Dante and his guides, Virgil and Beatrice, journey through the cantos in an allegory of the passage of the soul through the Afterlife, with the subtle engraving of Doré’s illustrations perfectly complementing the movement from darkness through to light.

Capodopera literaturii lui Dante este bine asimilata de arta fara egal a lui Gustave Dore. Dante si ghizii sai, Virgil si Beatrice, calatoresc prin cante intr-o alegorie a trecerii sufletului prin viata de apoi, cu gravura subtila a ilustratiilor lui Dore completand perfect miscarea de la intuneric la lumina.
