EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The science of casting horoscopes" from the renowned work Utriusque Cosmi Historia by Robert Fludd. Published in 1618, this engraving by the English School of the 17th century is a true testament to the intersection of art and knowledge during that era. In this intricate artwork, we see a vitruvian figure surrounded by an array of symbols and celestial bodies. The man depicted represents both the physical and metaphysical aspects explored in Fludd's treatise. With his nudity symbolizing vulnerability and openness to cosmic forces, he embodies the essence of astrology and occult sciences. The composition is rich with detail, presenting various signs of the zodiac meticulously arranged around him. These symbols hold great significance as they are integral to casting accurate horoscopes – a practice deeply rooted in ancient beliefs about how celestial movements influence human lives. Fludd's work delves into not only natural phenomena but also supernatural realms, exploring concepts beyond conventional understanding. This particular image comes from Tomus Secundus De Supernaturali, Naturali, Praeternaturali Et Contranaturali Microcosmi historia – a volume dedicated to unraveling mysteries surrounding our world. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time when scientific exploration was intertwined with artistic expression. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, humans were driven by curiosity and an insatiable thirst for knowledge about our place within the cosmos.
