The sodomites are punished in Hell.
Dante puts the sodomites at the bottom of the seventh circle of hell.
This illustration balances the poignancy of Dante’s encounter with Brunetto Latini and the graphic nature of the punishment that sodomites are subjected to in Inferno 15. Of particular note is the extreme division between Dante and his teacher that has the pilgrim bending down to speak to him.
