A painting of Dante surrounded by the three realms of the Divine Comedy: Hell, Purgatory with its spiral ramp, and Heaven with its crystal spheres. Dante died in exile in Ravenna and is buried there. We were told that officials in Firenze have offered a burial site for him but the officials in Ravenna say that Firenze didn't want him in life and so won't have him in death. Wikipedia: Dante Alighieri
