EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step into the depths of darkness with this photo print, showcasing a mesmerizing illustration from Dante's Inferno. Created by Jan van der Straet, also known as Joannes Stradanus, in 1587, this color lithograph offers a vivid depiction of the infernal landscape described in one of literature's most iconic works. Preserved within the esteemed Biblioteca Medicea-Laurenziana in Florence, this facsimile is a testament to Stradano's artistic brilliance and his ability to bring Dante Alighieri's vision to life. The intricate details and vibrant colors transport viewers into an otherworldly realm where sinners face their eternal punishments. The composition reveals a rocky terrain filled with geological formations that seem to writhe and contort under the weight of damnation. Flames dance across the map, casting an eerie glow on twisted trees and jagged cliffs.
