Door to Dante



This page is dedicated to the works 
More specifically, they are from Canto 1:

 "Dante finds himself in a dark wood in front of a mountain, assailed by three beasts (a lion, a lonza [usually rendered as a leopard or leopon], and a she-wolf) he cannot escape from. Unable to find the "straight way" (Diritta Via, also known as the Righeous Path) to Salvation, he is conscious that he is falling into Sin, a "deep space" (basso loco), where the sun is silent (Il Sol Tace).
Dante is at last rescued by the Roman poet Virgil, who claims to have been sent by Beatrice, and the two of them begin their journey to the underworld".

at wit's end - hans zimmer    
    
    the woods of sin drove the poet 
    away from his righteous path and                                                                   
 engulfed him into darkness.
