Description

Dante and Virgil in Hell by William-Adolphe Bouguereau (Illusions Gallery, ca. 2000s). Very Fine/Near Mint. Fine Art Print on Canvas (20" X 25" X 0.75").
Bouguereau's Dante and Virgil in Hell dramatizes the visceral brutality of the Inferno through a strikingly physical clash of damned souls, delivering classical technique mixed with raw corporeal intensity to embody the moral and psychological torment of Dante's vision. Offered in this lot is a gorgeous fine art print on canvas of the piece. An unrestored item that appears virtually unused. Closer inspection may reveal one or two minor flaws, such as light surface and handling wear.
