Conceived and created by the Cassa dei Risparmi Foundation of Forlì and the Uffizi Galleries, in collaboration with the Municipality of Forlì and the San Domenico Museums, the exhibition is directed by Eike Schmidt, Director of the Uffizi Galleries, and by Gianfranco Brunelli, Director of the great exhibitions of the Cassa dei Risparmi Foundation of Forlì. The curators of the project are Prof. Antonio Paolucci and Prof. Fernando Mazzocca.

The exhibition deals with a time span that goes from the thirteenth to the twentieth century. For the first time, the intimate relationship between Dante and art is entirely analyzed and reconstructed, presenting the artists who have ventured into the great challenge of making images the visionary power of Dante, of his works and in particular of the Divine Comedy. , or they dealt with themes similar to Dante's, or they drew episodes or individual characters from him, releasing them from the whole story and making them live in themselves.

The exhibition itinerary is very rich; 300 works of art including creations by Giotto, Beato Angelico, Filippino Lippi, Michelangelo, Tintoretto, up to Sartorio, Boccioni, Casorati and other contemporary masters. And about 50, including paintings, sculptures and drawings will come from the Uffizi, but not only. There are also loans from the Hermitage in St. Petersburg, the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool, the National Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art in Rome, the Borghese Gallery, the Vatican Museums, the Capodimonte Museum and many others.
