Read the following excerpt from Canto XXXIV of Dante's Inferno, in which Dante and Virgil encounter Luci, and then view the image by Gustave Doré that depicts this scene. The emperor of the kingdom of despair Rose up from mid-chest out of the sheer ice;
And I come closer to a giant's height ... ..

I saw that on his head he had three faces:
One in front - and it was fiery red -

And two others, which joined onto this one
Above the center of his shoulder blades, And all three came together at his crown

In each mouth he mashed up a separate sinner
With his sharp teeth, as if they were a grinder,
And in this way he put the three through tortur.

What detail does Doré's illustration add to Dante's description of Luci?

A. Luci has three faces
B. Luci emerges from ice rather than from fire
C. Luci is depicted as a giant compared to Dante
D. Luci is hunched over and seems to be brooding​
