Divine Comedy Doesn't Look Funny
Doesn't look very funny Divine Comedy, 1867, by Gustave Doré
A screenshot shows a Gustave Doré illustration titled “Divine Comedy, 1867,” depicting biblical-looking figures gathered around a bizarre giant spider-like creature. The joke is that Dante’s “Divine Comedy” is presented as horrifying and grotesque rather than funny, making “comedy” sound misleading. It is used as a reaction to dark, disturbing, or absurd interpretations of something expected to be entertaining.
