EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a pivotal moment in the rich history of a European city, as the citizens gather to witness the passage of a captive giant through its bustling streets. The year is 1532, and the giant, a legendary figure straight out of the pages of Ludovico Ariosto's seminal work "Orlando Furioso," has been brought to town as both a source of wonder and a reminder of the power and might of the ruling monarchy. The crowd, a sea of curious faces, presses in closer to get a better look at the towering figure, who is being led through the city by a group of armed guards. The giant's size and strength are awe-inspiring, dwarfing the buildings and people around him. His expression is inscrutable, adding to the sense of mystery and intrigue that surrounds him. The publication of "Orlando Furioso" in 1516 had set Europe ablaze with its tales of chivalry, magic, and larger-than-life characters. The story of the giant, who is captured and brought to the court of Charlemagne, had become a favorite among the folk lore of the time. This print, published in the 19th century, serves as a testament to the enduring power of Ariosto's work and the fascination that the giant and his kind continue to hold for us even today. As the giant passes by, the citizens of the city are caught up in the moment, their faces filled with a mixture of awe, excitement, and fear. The streets come alive with the sounds of laughter, gasps of wonder, and the clinking of coins as souvenirs are sold to those who want a piece of this once-in-a-lifetime experience. The giant's passage through the city is a reminder of the power of storytelling and the enduring allure of the fantastical and the unknown.
