EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of cartography from the 17th century - the Map of Atlantis according to the reconstruction by German Jesuit philosopher and historian Athanasius Kircher in 1665. With its intricate details and artistic flair, this studio shot transports us back in time to an era where exploration and discovery were at their peak. The map depicts a mystical island, surrounded by vast seas, with towering mountains adding an air of grandeur to its landscape. A sailing boat gracefully glides through the waters, symbolizing the mode of transport used during that period for adventurous journeys. Kircher's meticulous craftsmanship is evident in every stroke of his brush, as he brings Atlantis to life on this horizontal canvas. The use of Western script adds a touch of familiarity amidst the unknown wonders depicted on this illustration. As we gaze upon this artwork, our imagination takes flight, envisioning what it would have been like to embark on a voyage across uncharted territories. This print serves as a testament to human curiosity and our eternal quest for knowledge about ancient civilizations lost in time. With no people present within the frame, we are left alone with our thoughts and interpretations. It is not just an image; it is an invitation to explore history through art and craft while marveling at Kircher's visionary mind.
