EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Fantastic representation of the world system in the middle of the Middle Ages" takes us back to a time when exploration and knowledge were at their peak. Created by an unknown artist in the 18th century, this Italian picture is featured in Camille Flammarion's book "L'atmosphère: météorologie populaire" published in Paris in 1888. The image depicts a missionary from the Middle Ages who claims to have discovered the point where heaven and earth meet. Standing at this mystical intersection between sky and land, he gazes up with awe and wonder. The artwork beautifully captures his sense of discovery and curiosity about the world beyond what is known. With intricate details, such as celestial bodies like stars, planets, and even the moon surrounding him, it symbolizes humanity's quest for understanding our place within the vast universe. The engraving showcases elements of astrology, astronomy, geocentrism (the belief that Earth was at the center of the solar system), and allegory. This piece serves as a reminder of how our ancestors sought to unravel mysteries through exploration during medieval times. It invites us to reflect on our own pursuit of knowledge today while appreciating those who came before us. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork by Stefano Bianchetti from Fine Art Finder, we are reminded that there is always more to discover beyond what meets our eyes.
