The Factoria Cultural de Terrassa (LaFACT) presents from February 25 an exceptional exhibition featuring the 100 prints by Salvador Dalí illustrating The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri.

The exhibition, open until July 5, showcases a work commissioned by the Italian government in 1950. Salvador Dalí spent ten years creating the original watercolors, which were later transformed into woodcuts using 3,500 plates.
The collection is divided into three sections: 34 pieces for Hell, 33 for Purgatory, and 33 for Paradise. The set displayed in Terrassa is a limited edition owned by the Bolvir City Council, brought to the city through a cultural exchange.
The show also includes an educational program called Art Explorers, expected to reach a thousand students from the Vallès Occidental region through guided tours and workshops.
