Dante and Virgil in Hell - Edvard Weie
A dramatic plunge into shadow: Dante and Virgil in Hell, a vision by Edvard Weie
The composition of Dante and Virgil in Hell captures a psychological confrontation where dark volumes and touches of light sculpt the scene.

The characters' features stand out against controlled impasto and transparencies, giving the subject dramatic intensity. This art print of Dante and Virgil in Hell reproduces the narrative strength of the original while highlighting the textural richness and chromatic depth of the work.

Edvard Weie, a Danish painter of the early 20th century, distinguished himself through bold chromatic exploration and a reinvention of classical composition. Influenced by modern developments and the lessons of post-impressionists, Weie develops a pictorial vocabulary based on strengthening color masses and paying particular attention to pictorial structure. His major works explore the relationship between form and light, offering scenes that are both intimate and monumental. Weie's reinterpretation of literary and mythological subjects demonstrates his significant contribution to modern Nordic painting and the evolution of color sensitivity in Scandinavia.
