EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Dante, Virgil and the Plague-stricken, from The Divine Comedy" takes us back to the 14th century in Italy. Created by an anonymous Italian artist on vellum, it depicts a haunting scene from Dante Alighieri's renowned literary masterpiece. In this image, we witness Dante and his guide Virgil encountering a group of plague-stricken individuals. Their bodies are covered in sores, their faces twisted with pain and despair. It is a chilling reminder of the devastating bubonic plague that ravaged Europe during this era. The composition portrays the meeting between these doomed victims and the two protagonists as they journey through the depths of hell described in The Divine Comedy. Each figure seems trapped within their own personal inferno, scratching at their afflictions while bearing expressions of anguish. The exquisite manuscript captures not only physical suffering but also serves as a metaphor for spiritual torment. As Dante explores themes of sin and redemption throughout his epic poem, this particular scene emphasizes the consequences faced by those who succumb to moral decay. Preserved within Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana in Venice, Italy, this artwork continues to evoke strong emotions centuries after its creation. It stands as a testament to both human resilience amidst adversity and our collective fascination with exploring life's darkest corners through art.
