EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving by Gustave Dore, we are transported to the ethereal realm of "The Angels in the Planet Mercury". The image depicts a pivotal moment from Dante Alighieri's epic poem, "The Divine Comedy" where Beatrice guides her beloved Dante through the celestial spheres towards ultimate enlightenment. As our eyes wander across the print, we are immediately drawn to a radiant beam of light that illuminates Beatrice and Dante. This luminous path symbolizes their ascent from Earth to the planet Mercury, guided by angelic beings. It is as if they are being embraced by divine intervention on their journey towards spiritual awakening. Beatrice herself exudes grace and beauty as she leads Dante forward. Her presence represents not only his muse but also serves as an embodiment of love itself. With every step they take together, their bond grows stronger amidst a backdrop of billowing clouds that hint at heavenly realms beyond imagination. Dore's meticulous attention to detail brings this literary masterpiece to life visually. The multitude of angels surrounding Beatrice and Dante creates a sense of awe-inspiring grandeur. Each angel seems unique yet united in purpose – guiding souls towards salvation and eternal bliss. "The Angels in the Planet Mercury" captures both the majesty and mysticism found within "The Divine Comedy". Through this enchanting print, we can almost feel ourselves ascending alongside these iconic figures into realms unknown – a testament to Dore's artistic genius and his ability to transport us into otherworldly dimensions with his master
