Description
Following Virgilio and Caronte, Visconti continues its journey through Dante’s Divine Comedy with Paolo & Francesca, opening a new chapter in the Comedìa collection dedicated to the most profound and universal force of human experience: love. Paolo and Francesca are among the most celebrated figures in Dante’s work.
Lovers in life, they were killed by Francesca’s husband, who was also Paolo’s brother, after being discovered together. For this reason, Dante places them in the second circle of Hell, among the lustful souls swept away by a passion stronger than reason. Condemned to be carried forever within an endless storm, they remain united for eternity, symbolizing a love that endures beyond sin and death.
In this edition, Paolo and Francesca are brought together in a single writing instrument, evoking the eternal and inseparable nature of their bond.
The resin body is distinguished by a fluid interplay of red, purple, blue, and white, evoking love, desire, and sin. The red of Francesca and the blue of Paolo merge into a deep violet, emphasizing their eternal union and creating once again a detail rich in meaning. Their names, engraved and enameled on the central ring, further seal this bond with a discreet yet deeply symbolic gesture. Each piece is unique, thanks to the natural variations of the material.
Gold metal trims illuminate the composition, enhancing its elegance and creating a harmonious dialogue between light and color. A subtle balance that reflects the emotional tension of their story, suspended between love and damnation.
Limited to 999 pieces, this edition recalls the symbolic structure of the Divine Comedy, where numbers and meanings intertwine in a perfect order, reflecting a universe governed by harmony and measure.
