EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Les volcans français pendant la période miocène" takes us back to the prehistoric era, showcasing a dramatic scene of volcanic activity in France. Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection. The image depicts a group of terrified mammals fleeing from the erupting volcano, their expressions filled with anguish and terror. The intense eruption sends plumes of smoke and ash into the sky, creating a menacing atmosphere. This artwork beautifully captures the raw power and destructive force of nature during this ancient period. The engraving was originally commissioned as an illustration for Camille Flammarion's book "Le Monde avant La Création de L'Homme" published by Marpon et Flammarion in 1886. It offers viewers a glimpse into the world that existed before human beings came into existence. Digitally cleaned to enhance its clarity, this print showcases not only the artistic skill but also provides valuable insights into Earth's history. It serves as a reminder of our planet's tumultuous past and highlights how natural phenomena like volcanic eruptions have shaped our landscapes over millions of years. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to witness both the beauty and terror that once dominated our planet during its formative stages.
