EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century wood engraving, based on Gustave Dore's iconic illustration of Dante Alighieri's "Purgatorio" transports us to the mystical realm of medieval Italy. The print depicts a pivotal moment in Canto XIX, where Dante and his guide Virgil are summoned by an angel to ascend to the fifth level of Purgatory. The scene is filled with ethereal beauty as the angel, bathed in divine light, extends its radiant wings towards our protagonists. Its presence exudes both power and grace, beckoning them forward on their spiritual journey. Dante stands at attention, his face reflecting awe and reverence for this celestial encounter. Meanwhile, Virgil gazes upon the angel with a mix of admiration and trust – he knows they are being guided towards redemption. Gustave Dore's masterful technique brings every detail to life; from the intricate engravings that capture each feather on the angel's wings to the delicate shading that adds depth and dimensionality to their figures. The composition itself is carefully crafted – leading our eyes from bottom left corner up towards the heavenly figure above. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we cannot help but be drawn into its narrative richness. It serves as a reminder of Dante Alighieri's enduring literary masterpiece and offers us a glimpse into his vivid imagination. This print from The Granger Collection allows us to appreciate not only Dore's artistic prowess but also invites us to reflect on themes such as faith, redemption
