EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing moment from Dante Alighieri's epic poem, "Purgatorio". Illustrated by Gustave Dore in 1885, the image depicts Canto 1 of the Divine Comedy. In this scene, the two poets, Dante and Virgil, find themselves in purgatory at dawn. As they gaze up at the morning sky, their eyes are drawn to the ethereal beauty of Venus. The digitally colored engraving showcases Dore's incredible attention to detail and his ability to bring literary scenes to life. The trunk of a tree frames the composition, symbolizing growth and renewal as souls seek purification on their journey through purgatory. The celestial presence of Venus adds an element of enchantment to the artwork. Known as the goddess of love and beauty in Roman mythology, her appearance signifies hope and redemption for those seeking spiritual transformation. This piece transports viewers back to medieval Italy during Dante's time. It evokes a sense of wonderment as we witness these legendary figures immersed in poetic contemplation amidst nature's splendor. Giancarlo Costa has skillfully captured this timeless masterpiece with his lens, allowing us to appreciate every intricate detail. This print is not only a visual delight but also serves as a reminder of humanity's eternal quest for enlightenment and salvation through art and literature.
