Uffizi Galleries’ TikTok video featuring Dante and Virgil
“This TikTok video by the Uffizi Galleries uses works by Emilio Demi and Carlo Albacini and the song ‘Gotta Go My Own Way’ from Disney’s hit 2007 movie High School Musical 2. It plays on the moment Virgil leaves Dante in Purgatorio.” –Kate McKee
The TikTok video was posted on Dantedì (March 25) 2021 in honor of the 700th anniversary of Dante’s death.
