Gustave Doré's illustration for Canto 34, line 133 of Dante Alighieri's "The Inferno" is a masterful depiction of the climactic moment in the final canto of the first part of Dante's "Divine Comedy." This specific line, "Thus issuing we again beheld the stars," marks the end of Dante and Virgil's harrowing journey through Hell and their emergence back into the world of the living, symbolized by the sight of the stars. Doré, a prolific 19th-century French artist renowned for his detailed and dramatic engravings, captures this moment with his characteristic flair for the sublime and the otherworldly.

Doré's illustration is celebrated for its intricate detail and emotional depth. The image portrays Dante and his guide Virgil as they emerge from the dark, twisted landscape of Hell, ascending towards the light of the stars. The contrast between the oppressive darkness of the infernal realm and the hopeful, serene light of the stars is stark and poignant, encapsulating the theme of redemption and the enduring human spirit. Doré's use of light and shadow, along with his meticulous attention to the textures and forms of the figures and their surroundings, brings a profound sense of realism and immediacy to the scene.

This illustration is part of Doré's larger body of work on "The Divine Comedy," which includes numerous engravings that have been highly influential in shaping the visual imagination of Dante's epic poem. Doré's illustrations were first published in 1861 and have since become iconic, often regarded as definitive visual interpretations of Dante's text. His ability to convey the complex emotions and dramatic intensity of Dante's journey through Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise has cemented his reputation as one of the greatest illustrators of literary works.
