EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate marble sculptures portraying pride in Gustave Dore's illustration of Purgatorio, Canto 10 from Dante Alighieri's epic poem, The Divine Comedy. Created in 1885 and digitally colored, this engraving captures the essence of the medieval period with its masterful craftsmanship. The image transports us to a world where sinners are trapped in purgatory, seeking redemption for their transgressions. These beautifully carved figures represent the deadly sin of pride, standing tall and defiant amidst their eternal torment. Each sculpture exudes an air of arrogance and self-importance, capturing the essence of human vanity. Dante Alighieri himself was an Italian poet and author who penned The Divine Comedy as a journey through Hell (Inferno), Purgatory (Purgatorio), and Heaven (Paradiso). This particular canto explores themes of repentance and humility as souls strive to cleanse themselves before reaching paradise. Giancarlo Costa's expertly captured photograph allows us to appreciate both Dore's artistic interpretation and Dante's profound storytelling. It serves as a reminder that even in our modern age, we can still find inspiration in centuries-old works that delve into timeless aspects of human nature. Whether you are drawn to literature or art history, this mesmerizing print is sure to captivate your imagination while offering a glimpse into a bygone era filled with symbolism and spiritual contemplation.
