Inferno, Canto 13 - The Suicides Flee the Forest
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a moment of intense emotion and despair from Gustave Dore's illustration of Dante Alighieri's epic poem, "The Divine Comedy". In this scene from Canto 13 of the Inferno, we witness the haunting flight of the suicides as they escape from their torment in the forest. Dore's digitally colored engraving brings to life the eerie atmosphere and intricate details that make this artwork so mesmerizing. The twisted branches and gnarled trunks of trees create a sense of foreboding, while shadows dance ominously on the forest floor. It is within this macabre setting that Dante encounters those who took their own lives, forever condemned to wander aimlessly. The composition skillfully conveys both movement and anguish. The figures are depicted with such raw emotion that one can almost feel their desperation as they flee through tangled undergrowth. Each face tells its own tragic story – etched with sorrow, regret, and an eternal longing for redemption. Giancarlo Costa's expertly captured photograph allows us to appreciate every nuance of Dore's masterpiece. Through his lens, we are transported into a world where poetry meets artistry; where words come alive in vivid colors and evoke profound emotions. This print serves as a poignant reminder not only of our mortality but also of our capacity for hope amidst darkness. It invites us to reflect on our choices in life and reminds
