Divine Comedy: in 1302, Dante was banished from Florence. During his nineteen years of exile, he wrote the Commedia, a work which he wrote not in Latin but in the vernacular of Florence, his native language, and which is today considered the first great text in Italian.

In 1950, in anticipation of the commemoration of the 700th anniversary of the poet's birth, the Polygraphic Institute of the Italian State asked Dalí to illustrate The Divine Comedy. Unfortunately, the order will be canceled: ultimately, the artist's hundred original watercolors will be reproduced in a limited edition art book published by the French publisher Joseph Foret between 1959 and 1963, in collaboration with Éditions d'Art Les Heures Clear.
