EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Antaeus setting down Virgil and Dante in the Last Circle of Hell" transports viewers into the depths of Dante Alighieri's Inferno. Created by Robert Trail Rose in 1910, this colour lithograph beautifully captures a pivotal moment from Canto 31 of The Divine Comedy. The image depicts the towering figure of Antaeus, a giant from Greek mythology, gently placing Virgil and Dante onto the treacherous ground of Hell's final circle. The contrasting size between the diminutive poets and the colossal Antaeus emphasizes their vulnerability as they navigate this nightmarish realm. Rose's illustration skillfully portrays both the epic nature of their journey and the stark contrast between light and darkness within Inferno. Through his meticulous attention to detail, he brings to life Dante's vivid descriptions with striking clarity. As we gaze upon this powerful scene, we are reminded of the immense height that these literary figures have reached throughout history. Their presence here signifies not only their enduring legacy but also our own capacity for exploration and introspection. This thought-provoking artwork invites us to reflect on themes such as power dynamics, human resilience in adversity, and our eternal quest for understanding. It serves as a visual reminder that even amidst chaos and despair, great works like The Divine Comedy continue to inspire generations with their timeless wisdom.
