The Inferno from La Divina Commedia of Dante Alighieri

210 pp. Translated into English by Henry Francis Cary. Includes seven copper plate engravings from illustrations by William Blake, the only examples engraved from over a hundred he produced for a commission by John Linnell (very few of them were completely finished at the time of his death). "Dante Alighieri's poetic masterpiece, The Divine Comedy, is a moving human drama, an unforgettable visionary journey through the infinite torment of Hell, up the arduous slopes of Purgatory, and on to the glorious realm of Paradise - the sphere of universal harmony and eternal salvation."
