The Divine Comedy, Italian La divina commedia, original name La commedia, long narrative poem written in Italian circa 130821 by Dante. Dante and his guides, Virgil and Beatrice, journey through the cantos in an allegory of the passage of the soul through the Afterlife, with the subtle engraving of Dore's illustrations perfectly complementing the movement from darkness through to light. Dante's masterpiece of literature is well matched by the peerless art of Gustave Dore. Gustave Dor's (183283) illustrations and Dante's Divine Comedyhave become so intimately connected that even today, nearly 150 years after their initial publication, Dor's rendering of the poet's text still accompanies, or even determines, our vision of the Commedia.
