The theme of the print, Phillips' Dante Diary, is presented as a montage of text and images selected from the original drawings and collages. The strongest image in the upper right side of the print is a drawing of a skeletal-like head which Tom Phillips describes as "Head as House of Memory." It is fashioned of rooms twisting and turning inside a skull, reminiscent of Escher, with several running or falling figures. The head is duplicated in a much smaller version elsewhere on the print surface. Other themes pictorially and typographically represented include Dante in Brazil - Copacabana Beach, Dante a Milan and Dante in Botswana. The upper right side of the print contains architectural drawings that resemble Phillips' complex castle prints. The drawings are noted as "Seven sided house of folly." Further images include a drawing of the artist's hand writing the Italian text of the Inferno, a photograph of Tom Phillips at Dante's tomb in Ravenna, a page from "A Human Document," a drawing titled "My hand in Virgil's Hand," head of Dante with a fleur de lys mask and the typographic circles "Why Spend" and "Why Sale." Phillips has included several different typefaces and calligraphic styles for the texts in this densely intricate print. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
