The Fiske Dante Collection was a gift from Daniel Willard Fiske, first university librarian of Cornell University. All the images in the DCIA are from titles presumed by their age to reside in the public domain. The DCIA is available to researchers and scholars at all levels researchers may download and utilize the images for study, instruction and publication (on line or in print), subject only to an acknowledgment (“Image(s) courtesy of the Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections, Cornell University Library”) upon publication. These images derive from editions of The Divine Comedy published from the Incunabula period (ending in 1500) through the early twentieth century. The Divine Comedy Image Archive (DCIA), a digitization project under the aegis of the 2011 Grants Program for Digital Collections in Arts and Sciences, Cornell University, is a repository of scanned images from illustrated editions of Dante Alighieri’s poem found in the Fiske Dante Collection, Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections, Cornell University Library.
