EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "De elementorum forma" from Robert Fludd's Utriusque Cosmi Historia, a groundbreaking work published between 1617 and 1619. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 17th century, this engraving is part of a private collection. Fludd's Utriusque Cosmi Historia delves into the metaphysical, physical, and technical history of both the greater and lesser worlds. This microcosm-macrocosm concept suggests that our individual existence is intricately connected to the larger universe. The illustration featured here comes from the second volume of Fludd's magnum opus, De Macrocosmi fabrica. In this particular image, we witness a fusion of esoteric ideas with scientific theories. It explores the origins and construction of our cosmos through philosophical lenses. Fire and earth elements are prominently depicted as essential components in understanding the universe's intricate workings. The inclusion of Rosicrucian symbolism further adds depth to this artwork. Robert Fludd himself was associated with this secretive society known for its mystical teachings. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to an era when science intertwined with occult beliefs. It serves as a testament to humanity's eternal quest for knowledge about our place within the vastness of creation.
