"The Condemnation of Paolo and Francesca (Dante, Inferno, 5)" is a notable work of art by the 19th-century German painter Bonaventura Genelli. This painting, created in the Romantic style, vividly depicts the tragic tale of Paolo and Francesca, two characters immortalized in Dante Alighieri's "Inferno," which is the first part of his epic poem "The Divine Comedy." Genelli's work is inspired by the fifth canto of "Inferno," where Dante encounters the souls of the lovers Paolo Malatesta and Francesca da Rimini in the second circle of Hell, reserved for the sin of lust.

The painting captures the moment of their eternal condemnation as they are swept away by a hellish whirlwind, symbolizing the uncontrollable passion that led to their adulterous affair and subsequent violent deaths. Genelli's interpretation is characterized by dramatic intensity and emotional depth, reflecting the Romantic era's fascination with themes of love, sin, and retribution. The artist's use of color, composition, and expression serves to enhance the viewer's engagement with the moral complexities and human drama presented in Dante's narrative.

Bonaventura Genelli was known for his classical and mythological subjects, and his work on "The Condemnation of Paolo and Francesca" is a testament to his ability to fuse these interests with the literary sources that inspired him. The painting not only serves as an artistic representation of a significant literary moment but also offers insight into the cultural and artistic preoccupations of the time in which Genelli lived and worked.
