The Divine Comedy by Dante, Illustrated, Hell, Volume 05
Illustrated by Gustave Doré · Translated by Henry Francis Cary
"The Divine Comedy by Dante, Illustrated, Hell, Volume 05" by Dante Alighieri is a narrative poem begun around 1308 and completed around 1321. This epic work follows Dante's journey through the afterlife's three realms: Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven. Guided by the Roman poet Virgil and later by Beatrice, Dante encounters divine justice as souls receive punishment or reward for their earthly actions. The poem allegorically represents the soul's journey toward God, exploring medieval Catholic theology and the recognition of sin, penitence, and spiritual ascent.
