Dante and Virgil Descending into Hell is a 1912 oil by Antonio Fabrés, a Art Nouveau work, held at Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya.
This painting shows a dark, rocky landscape with two figures in the foreground. The figures are dressed in long robes and appear to be walking down a path. The background is dominated by large, jagged rocks that stretch up towards the top of the canvas. The painting is done in muted colors, with shades of brown and gray dominating the palette. The overall effect is one of somberness and seriousness. The painting is held at the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya.
