This French-language edition of "La Divine Comédie" by Dante Alighieri in the translation by Julien Brizeux was entirely made in Paris. It required fifty-five months of patient and assiduous work. Started in April 1959, it was completed on November 23, 1963. Two ateliers have attached their name to this monumental work: the printing works Jacquet and Daragnes.

The pressers are Marcel Marsillac, Roger Fontaine, Claude Marsillac, Gérard Favien, Francis Merat. The engraving of the MMMD woods necessary for the exceptional reconstruction of Salvador Dalí's hundred watercolors is the work of Raymond Jacquet with the collaboration of Jean Taricco.
