EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Paradiso, Canto 5: The host of myriad glowing souls in the second realm" takes us on a visual journey through Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy. Created by Gustave Dore in 1885 and digitally colored, this engraving beautifully captures the essence of Dante's poetic masterpiece. In this scene, we find ourselves immersed in the celestial realm as described by Dante himself. Countless radiant souls fill the space, their ethereal glow illuminating every corner of heaven. The artist skillfully portrays these luminous beings with intricate detail and delicate brushstrokes. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported to a world beyond our own. The heavenly light casts a warm and comforting glow over everything it touches while wisps of clouds gently float above. It is an awe-inspiring sight that evokes feelings of serenity and wonder. Dante Alighieri's Divina Commedia has captivated readers for centuries with its vivid imagery and profound exploration of life after death. This illustration brings one particular canto to life, allowing us to witness firsthand the beauty and grandeur that Dante envisioned. Giancarlo Costa has masterfully preserved this artistic treasure from history, reminding us of the enduring power behind both literature and visual art. Through his work, we can appreciate not only Dore's talent but also the timeless allure of Dante's words.
