EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning engraving of a swallow, inspired by Konrad Gesner's renowned work Historiae animalium. Created in Tiguri in 1555, this masterpiece is now housed at the Biblioteca Nazionale Braidense in Milan, Italy. The intricate details and meticulous craftsmanship of this unknown artist from the 16th century truly bring this bird to life. Every feather seems to flutter with grace and elegance as the swallow perches on a branch. Its beady eyes gaze into the distance, capturing our attention and inviting us into its world. Historiae animalium was an influential natural history book that sought to document various species found in nature. This engraving serves as a testament to Gesner's dedication to scientific accuracy and artistic beauty. The delicate lines etched onto paper create depth and texture, allowing us to appreciate every contour of the swallow's body. Giancarlo Costa has expertly captured this timeless artwork through his photography skills, preserving it for generations to come. As we admire this print, we are reminded of the wonders of nature and humanity's enduring fascination with animals throughout history. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply appreciate the beauty found in nature, this print is sure to captivate your imagination and add a touch of elegance to any space it graces.
