For 2021, the year in which the world celebrates Dante 700 years after his death, RRD promotes and oversees the publication of this book on the Divine Comedy, collaborating with Simone Marchesi, an enthusiastic scholar of the Comedy, and Roberto Abbiati, a creative illustrator and already a collaborator in our company\u2019s cultural projects. Our pursuit of elegance and beauty leads us to encourage and support the beauties of art and culture. This book aligns with our business project in the fashion field. The volume is the result of two years of work on Dante\u2019s work. Commented on in sometimes unusual aspects and illustrated in an unconventional way, the hundred steps from the Comedy have become a book of words and drawings that invites you to approach Dante\u2019s masterpiece without fear.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
