EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Dante and Beatrice, two ill-fated lovers immortalized in Dante Alighieri's renowned literary masterpiece, The Divine Comedy. Created by an anonymous Italian artist from the 14th century, this vellum manuscript transports us to a medieval world filled with passion and tragedy. In this scene, we witness Dante and Beatrice reunited in paradise, their souls intertwined for eternity. As they stand amidst heavenly beauty, their love transcends time and space. The delicate brushstrokes on vellum bring forth a sense of ethereal serenity that permeates the entire composition. Dante Alighieri himself was a Venetian poet who penned this epic poem as an allegorical journey through Hell (Inferno), Purgatory (Purgatorio), and finally Paradise (Paradiso).
