"Ran naked spirits wing'd with horrid fear" is an illustration by the French artist Gustave Doré, created as part of his extensive series of works for Dante Alighieri's "Divine Comedy." This particular piece corresponds to Canto XXIV, line 90 of "Inferno," where Dante describes the tormented souls in the eighth circle of Hell, known as Malebolge, where thieves are punished. The line captures the essence of the scene depicted by Doré, where the damned are shown in a state of utter despair and terror.

Gustave Doré (1832–1883) was a prolific engraver, artist, illustrator, and sculptor, known especially for his detailed and imaginative illustrations of literary works. His illustrations for the "Divine Comedy" were produced in 1861 and are among his most famous and celebrated works. These illustrations have had a significant impact on the visual interpretation of Dante's text, influencing both the public's perception of the poem and the artistic portrayal of its themes and characters.

Doré's "Ran naked spirits wing'd with horrid fear" is characterized by its dramatic use of light and shadow, capturing the movement and emotional intensity of the scene. The illustration is a testament to Doré's ability to convey narrative and emotion through his art, as the viewer is drawn into the chaotic and fearful atmosphere experienced by the souls depicted. The work is part of a larger collection that has been reproduced in various editions of the "Divine Comedy" and has been exhibited in art galleries and museums, contributing to Doré's reputation as a master illustrator of the 19th century.

As a visual representation of one of the most influential literary works in the Western canon, "Ran naked spirits wing'd with horrid fear" stands as a significant piece within the history of book illustration and art. It continues to be studied and appreciated for its artistic merit and its powerful contribution to the interpretation of Dante's epic poem.
