Things all the pieces had in common were the showing on contrast. In each piece there was always contrast giving objects deep outlines. Simple coloring or reds and yellows and black, all simple so one could focus on the severity of how terrible hell was. Each piece of music played was very dramatic and some what slow like it drug on like the people depicted in the pictures and motion picture. Obviously there were all kinds of human suffering as well.


Things that was different in the pieces were that some pieces is the interpretation of the demons. Some were three headed demons and others simple were fallen angels with wings. Some of the pieces showed small specific scenes of the action going on, others had a wider view showing a larger area.

Why are people still inspired by Dante's work 700 years later? No matter who you are I think everyone is fascinated with the places beyond death. Also there is an interest, I feel, wanted or not in all the dark ways humans can sin and also be punished for sin. Dante's work is the work that gives people something they don't want to see yet its the stuff that you simple cant just turn away from.
