EDITORS COMMENTS
This thought-provoking print captures the essence of a profound question that has intrigued humanity for centuries: Can the laboratory create life? Will the world be dominated by a laboratory robot? Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image is part of a private collection. It was originally intended as an advertisement for Armchair Science magazine, to be published on 29 November 1940. In this composition, we see a glimpse into a future where science and technology have advanced to unimaginable heights. The central focus is on a mechanical man made entirely of steel, shining with an otherworldly brilliance. Its multiple eyes symbolize its all-seeing nature, evoking both awe and trepidation. The photograph invites us to contemplate the progress of robotics and artificial intelligence, raising questions about their potential impact on our lives. As we gaze upon this creation born from chemistry and biology within the confines of a laboratory, we cannot help but feel both fascination and fear. With World War II raging in the background during which scientific advancements were accelerated due to necessity, there is an added layer of complexity to this image. It serves as a reminder that while progress can bring great benefits, it also carries inherent risks. As viewers engage with this artwork from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, they are confronted with feelings of anxiety and angst about what lies ahead. Can mankind control these creations or will they dominate us? Only time will reveal if our fears are justified
