EDITORS COMMENTS
In the dreamlike realm of 17th century imagination, this print depicts the daring exploits of Domingo Gonsales, a man who defied the bounds of earthly limitations and embarked on a fantastical journey to the Moon. The year was 1638, and Gonsales, a visionary explorer, had discovered a way to train wild swans to tow a heavy burden through the air. With unwavering determination and a touch of magic, Gonsales had tamed these magnificent creatures, transforming them into his trusted steeds for this extraordinary voyage. The swans, their wings spread wide, carry their master gracefully through the cosmos, leaving a trail of stardust in their wake. Upon reaching the Moon, Gonsales and his avian companions were greeted by a landscape unlike any other. The barren lunar terrain, dotted with craters and illuminated by the ethereal glow of the Moon's surface, served as a stark contrast to the lush, watery world from which they had come. Yet, the swans were not strangers to this alien environment. It seemed that they had made this journey many times before, for they were accustomed to hibernating on the Moon during its quieter, darker moments. As Gonsales set foot on the Moon's surface, he marveled at the wondrous sight before him. The swans, having completed their task, took flight once more, their wings beating against the lunar sky. And with a final, triumphant glance at his celestial steeds, Domingo Gonsales, the man who dared to dream of flight to the Moon, began his new life among the stars.
