EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print from 1658, titled "The position of the planets on the human forehead" is a fascinating glimpse into the world of mysticism and occult practices. Created by Jerome Cardan for his book Metoposcopia, this intricate diagram showcases the ancient art of metoposcopy - the study of facial features to reveal one's character and destiny. In this mesmerizing image, we see a face divided into sections, each representing different celestial bodies. The planets are meticulously placed on various parts of the forehead, suggesting their influence on different aspects of an individual's life. This unique fusion between astrology and physiognomy offers a mystical perspective on how cosmic forces shape our personalities. The French origins of this woodcut add an air of sophistication to its allure. Paris, known as a hub for artistic expression during that time period, was also home to many esoteric thinkers who delved into occult sciences. It is within this context that Cardan's work flourished and gained recognition among those seeking hidden knowledge. As we gaze upon this rare artifact from centuries past, it serves as a reminder that humans have long been fascinated by unlocking the secrets held within our physical appearance. Whether you believe in these ancient practices or not, there is no denying the beauty and intrigue found in this woodcut print – a testament to both artistic skill and humanity's eternal quest for understanding ourselves and our place in the universe.
