The Inferno Collection
Famous Hell Paintings
Recreated by Hand
For centuries painters tried to show what no one had seen: hell, its demons and its fires. This collection gathers famous paintings of hell and the devil, from Bosch's Garden of Earthly Delights and Bruegel's Triumph of Death to John Martin's Pandemonium, Dante and Virgil crossing the underworld, William Blake's Satan, Last Judgements and the temptation of Saint Anthony. Dark, strange and unforgettable, every painting is available as a hand-painted oil reproduction on real canvas.

The Most Famous Paintings of Hell
Bosch's right-hand panel of musical torture, Bruegel's army of skeletons, John Martin's glowing palace of Pandemonium and Goya's goat-headed devil: the images that shaped how we imagine hell.

Dante's Inferno and the Underworld
Dante's Divine Comedy led readers down nine circles of hell with the poet Virgil as guide. Painters followed, from Bouguereau's wrestling damned souls to Charon ferrying the dead across the river.
03
Satan and the Devil
The devil appears as a fallen angel, a tempter and a chess player. Blake painted him again and again; Paton showed him watching the sleeping Christ, and Repin showed him dismissed.

The Last Judgement
At the end of time the dead rise, the saved climb to heaven and the damned fall. Fra Angelico, Memling and Bouts divided the world in two; Bosch painted the tunnel of light to paradise.
05
Temptation, Witches and Death
Saint Anthony tormented by demons in the desert, Mad Meg charging into hell, Death riding a pale horse or playing the fiddle behind Böcklin's shoulder.
