This is the same page except staged from the other side, looking up into the wook as opposed to looking out of it.

The composition is based on a drawing by Gustave Dore. The leopard is in the tree on the left, the lion in the dark between the trees in the center and the wolf is nothing but a dark shadow against a tree at the top of the composition. Thats the shade of Virgil on the right hand side and Dante is front and centre in the frame.
