EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic moment of the fall of meteorites at Hatford, Berkshire in the UK. The year is 1628 and Mistress Greene, a brave witness to this extraordinary event, has one of the meteorites dug up despite the terror it instills in one of the diggers who swoons in shock. Before the meteorites came crashing down from space, eerie sounds resembling thunder or a cannon firing filled the air, followed by a haunting drumbeat that echoed through the sky.
The historical significance of this astronomical phenomenon is evident as Mistress Greene fearlessly oversees the digging up of these otherworldly objects while others succumb to fainting spells out of sheer terror. The woodcut image beautifully captures this momentous occasion with its depiction of falling meteors and terrified onlookers.
As we gaze upon this remarkable scene frozen in time, we are reminded of nature's power and mystery that continues to captivate us even centuries later. The sun shines brightly overhead as these celestial visitors make their fiery descent to Earth, leaving behind a trail of awe and wonder for all those fortunate enough to witness such an extraordinary event.
