EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 17th century, where we find ourselves gazing upon the legendary island of Atlantis. The engraving, based on a description by Athanasius Kircher, a German Jesuit priest and scientist, showcases the mythical land that was first introduced to us by Plato. According to ancient Greek legend, Atlantis was believed to be located just beyond the Pillars of Hercules (Gibraltar and Mount Hacho). This intriguing map-like depiction shows an expansive sea with a sailing ship gracefully gliding through its waters towards this fabled destination. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of mystery and timelessness to this image. It transports us back in history when tales of legendary lands captured people's imaginations. The intricate details in the engraving allow our eyes to wander across the geography of Greece as we try to envision what this lost paradise might have looked like. As we study this print, we can't help but wonder about the secrets hidden within those uncharted waters. Was Atlantis merely a figment of imagination or did it truly exist? Regardless, this artwork serves as a reminder of humanity's fascination with exploration and our eternal quest for knowledge about our past. With each passing century, stories may fade away into obscurity, but prints like these keep them alive for generations to come. They serve as windows into worlds long gone yet continue inspiring curiosity and sparking conversations about ancient civilizations such as Atlantis.
