Gustave Doré's illustration for "The Inferno, Canto 28, lines 30, 31: Now mark how I do rip me: lo! How is Mahomet mangled" is a striking and evocative piece of art that captures a moment from Dante Alighieri's seminal work, "The Divine Comedy." This particular canto is set in the Eighth Circle of Hell, known as Malebolge, where the sowers of discord are punished. In these lines, Dante encounters the prophet Muhammad, who is depicted in a state of perpetual mutilation as a punishment for causing schism and division.

Doré, a renowned 19th-century French artist, is celebrated for his detailed and dramatic illustrations of literary classics. His work on "The Divine Comedy" is among his most famous, and his illustrations have become almost as iconic as the text itself. In this illustration, Doré employs his signature style of intricate line work and dramatic contrasts of light and shadow to bring the harrowing scene to life. The image is both graphic and poignant, capturing the agony and despair of the figures depicted.

Doré's interpretation of this scene is notable for its intense emotional impact and its ability to convey the themes of divine justice and retribution that are central to Dante's work. The illustration not only serves as a visual representation of the text but also enhances the reader's understanding of the moral and theological underpinnings of Dante's vision of Hell.

This illustration, like many of Doré's works, has been widely reproduced and remains a powerful visual companion to Dante's epic poem. It continues to be studied and admired for its artistic merit and its ability to evoke the profound and often unsettling imagery of "The Divine Comedy."
