DescriptionGustave Doré - Dante Alighieri - Inferno - Plate 13 (Canto V - Minos).jpg | Gustave Doré's illustration to Dante's Inferno. Plate XIII: Canto V: Minos judges the sinners. "There standeth Minos horribly, and snarls; Examins the transgressions at the entrance; Judges, and sends according to he girds them." (Longfellow's translation). To make it a bit clearer: Each time his tail wraps round the sinner represents one circle further down. I believe it's a bull's tail in the original Italian, but Doré was illustrating Longfellow, poor chap. | ||||||
