Fritz Boehle's 1895 "Illustration zu Dantes Göttlicher Komödie" is a pen and ink drawing housed in the Städel Museum. The work depicts a scene from Dante's *Divine Comedy*, with a kneeling figure of Dante, a naked figure representing the human soul, and an angel. The dramatic composition, detailed lines, and chiaroscuro shading create a sense of spirituality and awe, inviting viewers to contemplate the themes of sin, salvation, and the human condition.
