Divina Commedia, Inferno: Scene, Punishment of Avaricious and Prodigal -- Dante, wearing hat, gesturing, stands with Virgil, gesturing. Around them are nude souls of the avaricious and the prodigal, including some wearing triple crown papal tiaras or bishop's miters, and some pushing stones and clashing with other souls.
