EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving by John Flaxman that beautifully captures a scene from Dante Alighieri's epic poem, "The Divine Comedy". This particular print showcases the sixteenth canto of the final part of the poem, "Paradise". In this enchanting image, we see an ethereal depiction of the infant Jesus surrounded by celestial beings. Flaxman's intricate details and delicate lines bring to life the divine atmosphere described in Dante's verses. The artist masterfully portrays the innocence and purity of the Infant Saviour as he radiates light and love. This engraving is part of Flaxman's larger series titled "Illustrations of The Divine Poem" which was published in 1867. It serves as a visual interpretation of Dante's profound journey through heaven and his encounters with various biblical figures. Flaxman's work not only pays homage to Dante Alighieri but also showcases his own artistic genius. Through this print, viewers are transported into a realm where poetry meets artistry, merging two timeless forms of expression. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, we are reminded of Italy's rich cultural heritage and its contribution to literature and art. This piece stands as a testament to both Italian creativity and European artistic excellence.
