EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of medieval technology, known as the Hezekiah with Water Clock. Created in the 13th century, this manuscript illumination from a French Bible offers us a glimpse into the ingenuity and craftsmanship of that era. Hezekiah, an influential biblical figure and king, is depicted alongside this innovative water clock device. The image beautifully captures his fascination with timekeeping and his desire to measure it accurately. The water clock, also referred to as a clepsydra, was an ingenious invention that utilized flowing water to mark the passage of time. This ancient timepiece relied on gravity and precise engineering to function effectively. The intricate details within this artwork highlight not only the artist's skill but also their deep understanding of mechanical devices during medieval times. Each stroke brings life to Hezekiah's expression as he contemplates the concept of time itself. This photograph print serves as a reminder of humanity's unending quest for knowledge and advancement throughout history. It provides us with an opportunity to appreciate how our ancestors sought innovative solutions even in seemingly simple matters like measuring time.
