EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of T Hobbes' iconic work, "Leviathan" published by A Crooke in 1651. The image showcases an illustration from a catalogue compiled by Alfred Forbes Johnson, providing a glimpse into the historical significance of this renowned book. The photograph beautifully highlights the intricate details of the engraved and etched English title page, showcasing its decorative elements that reflect the artistic style of that era. As we delve into British history, we are transported back to a time when books held immense cultural value and were treasured possessions. Thomas Hobbes' "Leviathan" remains one of his most influential works, exploring political philosophy during a tumultuous period in England's past. This image serves as a visual representation of intellectualism and scholarly pursuits prevalent during that time. With Germany being at the forefront of European culture and education, it is fitting to appreciate this photograph's inclusion within German collections. It symbolizes how knowledge transcends borders and unites nations through shared literary heritage. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by an anonymous English photographer from the 20th century, it reminds us not only of our collective history but also emphasizes the importance of preserving these invaluable artifacts for future generations to cherish.
