The Italian poet Dante Alighieri wrote passionately about Beatrice #discover_in_history The Italian poet Dante Alighieri wrote passionately about Beatrice in the Divine Comedy and other poems while walking on the street in Florence, Beatrice, an emerald-eyed beauty, turned and greeted Dante before continuing on her way. Beatrice died at age 24 in 1290 without Dante ever seeing her again. Nonetheless, she was “the glorious lady of my mind,“ he wrote, and “she is my beatitude, the destroyer of all vices and the queen of virtue, salvation.“ #Dante_Alighieri
