Salvador Dali Artist Proof Woodblock Print Divine Comedy Inferno #10 "Heretics"
About the Item
Gorgeous woodblock print entitled "Heretics", Inferno #10 from the "Divine Comedy" series by Salvador Dali, circa 1960s. The piece is an artist proof (E.A.) and is signed at the bottom right in red.
This Illustration by Dali can be found in "Dante's Divine Comedy" by Dante Alighieri which was written between 1307 and 1321.
Dante Alighieri was born in 1265, and died in 1321. Salvador Dali was born in 1904, and died in 1989.
Despite the fact that he was born almost 600 years after Dante's death, the work of the surrealist painter fits so well with the great writer's work that one might almost believe them to be contemporaries. Dali seems to have painted his representation of each canto as Dante was writing, as if he was looking over his shoulder.
The Divine Comedy is the major work of Italian literature; the work is divided into three parts (Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven), and comprises 100 Cantos.
Dante, lost in the dark forest of sin, explores hell, purgatory and heaven in his attempt to find God. Virgil, the great Latin poet, guides him through hell and purgatory. Finally, the sweet and virtuous Beatrice welcomes him to heaven, where Saint Bernard leads him to God.
During his voyage, Dante meets mythological characters, each of whom personifies a sin or a virtue, and describes their punishments and rewards.
The piece measures 19" x 21.5" overall (image is 7" x 9.5") and is professionally framed in a gold wood frame with double linen mats.
