A major difference between Doré's and Blake's illustrations of Dante's Inferno is that Doré depicts Dante and Virgil as traditional heroic characters, while Blake's characters are more childlike.

Dante Alighieri's epic poem "Divine Comedy" is a narrative about his journey to Hell guided by Virgil. The epic details the journey through the nine circles of Hell and the numerous characters that he met in these circles.

  • Inferno is one part of the epic poem which is also followed by Purgatorio and Paradiso.
  • William Blake illustrated Dante's Inferno but made the characters appear more childlike, not like the 'supreme' or 'majestic characters they are to be.
  • On the other hand, another illustration of the same epic is done by Gustave Doré who characterized or illustrated Dante and Virgil as more traditional heroic characters.
  • Gustave Doré's images show more of a realistic human image for the duo while Blake's images portray a much more animated or childish take on them.

Though there are many illustrations of Dante's epic "Divine Comedy", the most notable would be Blake's and Doré's illustrations of the same. And the major difference between the two illustrations is option B.
