EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Circle of Thieves: Agnello Brunelleschi Attacked By a Six-Footed Serpent, from Dante's Inferno" we are transported into the depths of William Blake's imagination. Created in the 19th century, this dramatic engraving showcases Blake's mastery in capturing both horror and beauty within a single frame. The scene unfolds with Agnello Brunelleschi, a criminal figure from Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy, being viciously attacked by a monstrous six-footed serpent. The intensity of the encounter is palpable as we witness Agnello desperately fighting for his life against this terrifying creature. Blake skillfully portrays the chaos and terror through intricate details, emphasizing the sheer magnitude of the threat faced by our protagonist. The snake coils around Agnello with menacing power while its reptilian scales shimmer under dim light. This juxtaposition between darkness and illumination adds an eerie atmosphere to the artwork. As we delve deeper into this mesmerizing composition, it becomes apparent that Blake not only captures physical struggle but also delves into profound themes such as crime and punishment. Through his masterful strokes, he invites us to contemplate concepts like justice and morality within society. This thought-provoking piece can be found at The Metropolitan Museum of Art where it stands as a testament to William Blake's artistic genius. It serves as a reminder that art has the power to transport us beyond reality and explore complex emotions hidden within our collective human experience.
