Purgatorio 

This illustration, "Purgatorio," is a striking example of Gustave Doré's signature style. The 19th century French artist was well-known for his dramatic interpretations of literary classics, and this piece depicting a scene from Dante's _Inferno_ is no exception. Doré's use of dark, shadowy tones and dramatic contrasts create a sense of mystery and awe, capturing the haunting atmosphere of Dante's vision of the afterlife. The scene portrays a procession of souls, led by a monstrous figure, through a dark and forbidding landscape, demonstrating the artist's ability to evoke emotions and tell stories through his art.
