EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Plato's Map of Atlantis" takes us on a journey into the realm of myth and imagination. Inspired by the ancient Greek philosopher Plato's descriptions, this illustration depicts the legendary city of Atlantis. According to Plato's writings in 360 BC, Atlantis was believed to be situated on an island at the entrance of the Pillars of Hercules, now known as the Strait of Gibraltar. The artist skillfully brings to life this mythical civilization that has fascinated scholars and adventurers for centuries. With its classical architecture and intricate waterways, the image offers a bird's-eye view of a lost city shrouded in mystery. However, despite numerous expeditions and extensive research conducted by archaeologists and historians alike, no concrete evidence confirming Atlantis' existence or precise location has been found. The legend suggests that around 9600 BC, Atlantis met its tragic fate when it was submerged beneath the sea due to a cataclysmic flood. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print from Science Photo Library, we are reminded not only of our fascination with ancient civilizations but also how tales passed down through generations can capture our collective imagination. Whether real or imagined, Atlantis continues to captivate our minds as one of history's greatest enigmas—a testament to humanity's enduring curiosity about our past.
