EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense and tragic love story of Francesca and Paolo, depicted in an oil on canvas painting by Ary Scheffer in 1854. The artwork measures 58.2x80.5 cm and is housed at the Hamburger Kunsthalle in Hamburg, Germany. Francesca da Rimini and Paolo da Verrucchio, characters from Dante Alighieri's epic poem "The Divine Comedy" are portrayed here with great emotion. Virgil, wearing a laurel wreath, stands alongside Dante who is dressed in red robes. Their presence signifies that this scene takes place within the second circle of hell. The painting showcases the raw power of erotic abandon as Francesca and Paolo embrace each other passionately. However, their forbidden love has dire consequences as they both suffer from stab wounds inflicted upon them due to their adultery. The couple's nakedness symbolizes vulnerability while also emphasizing their complete surrender to desire. The dramatic composition adds to the overall tragedy of their situation. Through this artwork, Scheffer explores themes of betrayal, passion, and ultimately the consequences that follow when one succumbs to temptation. It serves as a powerful reminder of how our actions can lead us down a path filled with pain and regret. This print from Bridgeman Images allows viewers to appreciate every intricate detail captured by Scheffer's brushstrokes while contemplating the profound narrative behind this tragic masterpiece.
