EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Paradiso, Canto 21: The luminous souls sing" is an exquisite illustration from Dante Alighieri's renowned literary masterpiece, The Divine Comedy. Created by the talented artist Gustave Dore in 1885 and digitally colored for enhanced vibrancy, this engraving transports us to a celestial realm of ethereal beauty. In this scene, we witness the radiant souls of paradise as they joyfully serenade with heavenly melodies. Bathed in divine light and adorned with aureoles that illuminate their angelic presence, these luminous beings create a mesmerizing spectacle against the backdrop of billowing clouds. Each figure exudes grace and tranquility, embodying the profound spirituality found within Dante's poetic vision. Dante Alighieri himself was an Italian author and poet who lived during the medieval period. His magnum opus, Divina Commedia (The Divine Comedy), remains one of literature's most celebrated works. Through his vivid descriptions and allegorical storytelling, Dante takes readers on a transformative journey through Hell (Inferno), Purgatory (Purgatorio), and finally Heaven (Paradiso). This enchanting artwork captures both the essence of Dante's timeless narrative and Gustave Dore's exceptional artistic talent. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with exploring themes of spirituality, redemption, and transcendence through artistry. As we gaze upon this print from Giancarlo Costa's private collection today, it continues to inspire
