William-Adolphe Bouguereau Dante and Virgil in Hell Print
Pickup currently not available
Inspired by Dante’s Inferno, Bouguereau paints a blood-stained tale of deception, violence and damnation. Dante and Virgil in Hell captures the moment when the conman Gianni Schicchi sinks his teeth into fellow sinner Capocchio – a muscular, furious clash surrounded by the grotesque horrors of the eighth circle. This is Bouguereau as you’ve never seen him before: dramatic, defiant, and unmistakably modern.
While Bouguereau is best known for classical beauty, this early work is full of Romantic angst and visual power, echoing the fevered imaginations of Blake and Füssli. It’s gothic, gripping and unforgettable – perfect for interiors that lean into the moody, maximalist or mythic.
