Stygiophobia ... Dante and Rodin!

Both create the "Gates of Hell". If you suffer from Stygiophobia or Stigiophobia or Hadephobia, you may want to avoid reading Dante's Inferno or skip viewing the reproduction of Rodin's monumental door depicting the suffering souls of Dante's hell.

Rodin's sculptures at the Nelson-Atkins Museum brings Dante's "Divine Comedy" to the forefront of our imaginations ! The Rodin Exhibit at the Nelson runs from October 2011 through June 3, 2012 in the Bloch Lobby at the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art.
