EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Double Almanack (common and new) and Prognostication for Dublin for 1587" by W. Farmer, a remarkable piece of art from the 16th century. The intricate woodcut design, engraved by an English School artist in the 19th century, takes us back to a time when astrology and prophecy held great significance. The frontispiece of this almanac depicts an astrologer deeply engrossed in foretelling events, surrounded by celestial patterns that symbolize his connection with the stars. This image perfectly captures the essence of Elizabethan times, where people sought guidance through astrology to predict their future. The detailed craftsmanship displayed in this print is truly awe-inspiring. Every line and curve has been meticulously carved into wood to create a visually stunning composition. It serves as a testament to the skill and dedication of both the original artist from the 16th century and those who reproduced it centuries later. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are transported back to a time when belief in astrology was widespread, offering solace and hope amidst uncertain times. The Double Almanack not only provided practical information about dates and seasons but also offered insights into what lay ahead. This print is not just an exquisite display of artistic talent; it represents our fascination with divination throughout history—a reminder that humans have always sought answers beyond what meets the eye.
