EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases the Andrea Argoli system, featured in "Le theatre du monde ou Nouvel atlas" by Guillaume et Jean Blaeu in 1645. This masterpiece of Arts Deco, located in Paris, was created by Willem and Joan Blaeu. The image is housed at the Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France. The photograph captures a manuscript engraving that depicts a circle representing the geocentric solar system according to Andrea Argoli's theories. It beautifully illustrates the intricate relationship between astrology and astronomy during this era. The composition portrays a blank background with precise details of celestial bodies such as the sun and other planets revolving around Earth. This representation reflects the prevailing belief in geocentrism at that time. Giancarlo Costa skillfully captured this historical artifact, preserving its beauty for future generations to admire. The photograph not only serves as a visual documentation but also evokes curiosity about humanity's understanding of our place within the cosmos throughout history. This remarkable piece invites viewers to delve into an exploration of ancient knowledge and scientific discoveries while appreciating both the artistic and intellectual aspects of this engraving. Giancarlo Costa's work allows us to appreciate how art can bridge gaps between disciplines like science and history, reminding us that creativity has always been intertwined with human progress.
