EDITORS COMMENTS
This fascinating historical print captures a rare glimpse into the world of German miners practicing the ancient art of dowsing for metals. Dating back to 1553, this image is believed to be one of the earliest depictions of a dowser at work, using a forked stick to locate valuable minerals underground. Dowsing, also known as water witching or divining, is a paranormal practice that has been used for centuries by individuals seeking to uncover hidden resources beneath the earth's surface. In this particular scene, we see German dowsers diligently searching for metals with their trusty sticks in hand. The intricate details captured in this print offer a unique window into the history and traditions of mining in Germany. The concentration on the faces of these miners as they focus on their task speaks volumes about the importance and seriousness with which they approach their craft. Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this remarkable snapshot from centuries past, allowing us to marvel at the skills and techniques employed by our ancestors in their quest for precious metals. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of technology and innovation while also highlighting the enduring power and mystery surrounding practices like dowsing.
