The Art of Dante

This semester, we have discussed both art and literature, and the relation between the two. So, I thought it would be interesting to see a particular piece of art that portrays the story line of one of our readings. I found this video on YouTube, and I find it interesting, because it does not use the general medium. Instead, it is a clay animation of key focuses in Dante's Inferno. It shows the pilgrim's journey from the dark woods to the giants in Canto 31, along with many features. I hope you enjoy!
