Art, Symbol & Imagination
Dante and Beatrice among the Redeemed
Two circular details isolate faces from crowded groups, one captioned Dante and the other Beatrice. The accompanying credit names A. Orcagna and Alinari, Florence. Their shared plate presents the figures as part of the redeemed, making each face legible while keeping neighbouring heads within the frame. The book’s identifications provide the historical context for these cropped reproductions.
