EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the medieval French alchemist Nicholas Flamel and his wife Pernelle, depicted in a 19th-century copy of a 15th-century painting. The couple is seen kneeling side by side under the vaults of the Cemetery of the Innocents in Paris, evoking an atmosphere steeped in history and knowledge. Nicholas Flamel, believed to have lived from 1330 to 1418, was not only an alchemist but also a renowned philosopher during the Middle Ages. His quest for the elusive Philosopher's Stone, said to possess extraordinary powers including turning base metals into gold and granting eternal life, has fascinated generations. The sketch-like quality of this print adds to its charm as it transports us back in time. The intricate details capture the essence of medieval illustrations and historical drawings prevalent during that era. Through this artwork, we are given a glimpse into Flamel's world - one filled with mystery, intrigue, and endless possibilities. Ken Welsh's masterful reproduction brings forth both nostalgia for centuries past as well as admiration for these enigmatic figures who dedicated their lives to unlocking ancient secrets. This horizontal print serves as a visual portal connecting us with medieval times while reminding us of humanity's unending thirst for knowledge and discovery.
