EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, providing a glimpse into the early representation of divination through the use of a divining rod. The image showcases an intriguing scene where a figure is seen above ground, holding a diving rod in search of precious resources such as water, coal, or gold. The illustration beautifully captures the essence of this ancient practice known as dowsing or divination. With utmost concentration and determination, the individual uses their divining rod to detect hidden treasures beneath the Earth's surface. Meanwhile, below ground level, miners can be seen tirelessly toiling away in their quest for coal. Published in 1897 by The Strand Magazine, this artwork not only offers historical significance but also serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with uncovering nature's secrets. It reminds us of our innate desire to explore and harness the Earth's resources for various purposes. Ken Welsh has masterfully preserved this early representation through his skilled photography techniques. This print invites viewers on an enchanting journey back in time when individuals relied on unconventional methods like dowsing rods to guide them towards valuable discoveries underground. As we gaze at this remarkable piece of artistry from Design Pics, it sparks curiosity about how far we have come since then while acknowledging that our thirst for knowledge and exploration remains unquenchable even after centuries have passed.
