Dante Alighieri
The poet.
The exile.
The legacy.

Dante Alighieri's presence in Florence is everywhere: in monuments, churches, museums, streets and the literature that transformed the city into one of the great cultural symbols of the world.
The Divine Comedy made his voice inseparable from the imagination of the afterlife, but Dante's work is also deeply personal: memory, exile, political conflict, love, language and the hope of returning home.
Settembre Dantesco uses these physical places and surviving images as a visual path into that story.
The city and the poet
