EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable project of the Canal des Deux Mers, also known as the Canal du Midi, connecting the vast Ocean to the beautiful Mediterranean Sea. The image captures a moment in history when Pierre Paul de Riquet, a brilliant French engineer from the 17th century, presented his groundbreaking vision to connect these two bodies of water. In this particular scene from "Popular history of science, inventions and discoveries from the first centuries to the present day" by Bitard Adolphe in 1880, we witness Riquet passionately explaining his ambitious plan. His determination and expertise shine through as he discusses every intricate detail with fellow engineers. The engraving beautifully depicts human ingenuity at its finest. It is evident that Riquet's project was not only an engineering feat but also a testament to human perseverance and innovation. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate both the magnitude of this endeavor and Riquet's significant contribution to France's rich engineering heritage. As we gaze upon this historical artifact captured by Stefano Bianchetti in stunning detail, we are reminded of how far humanity has come in shaping our world through scientific advancements. This print serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, individuals like Pierre Paul de Riquet were capable of envisioning grand projects that would forever alter landscapes and unite distant lands for generations to come.
