Since the publication of this project in April, it seeks to demonstrate a modern approach to providing appealing visuals to enhance reading experiences – a means to step away from conventional representations illustrated by Gustave Dore, the same 18th-century illustrator responsible for illustrating 13th-century’s The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri.
