Featured on PDR in the collection 700 Years of Dante’s Divine Comedy in Art

A man wakes deep in the woods, halfway through life. Far from home, unpermitted to return, his heart pierced by grief. He has strayed from the path. It's a dark night of the soul, his crisis so great that death becomes a tempting end. And then, as wild beasts advance upon this easy prey, his prayers are answered. A guide appears, promising to show him the way toward paradise. . .

Inferno, Canto XXV: The false counsellors; Dante and Virgil clamber out of the pit to the next summit.
