EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "COMET, 1619" takes us back in time to Augsburg, Germany. The image showcases a celestial phenomenon that occurred over the city in the year 1619. Crafted by Lucas Schultes, a talented woodcut artist of that era, this contemporary piece offers a unique glimpse into history. In the foreground of the woodcut, we see men standing on the riverside with their halberds raised high against the night sky. Their silhouettes create an intriguing contrast against the backdrop of Augsburg's cityscape and its iconic spires. The comet itself shines brightly above them, leaving behind a mesmerizing trail as it traverses through space. The crescent moon adds an ethereal touch to this scene, casting a soft glow upon both land and water. Beyond the horizon lies River Lech, which further enhances the beauty of this nocturnal spectacle. Lucas Schultes' attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his woodcut technique. The text accompanying this artwork provides valuable historical context without overshadowing its visual impact. This print serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, people marveled at celestial events just as we do today. It invites us to reflect on our place within the vastness of space and appreciate how art can capture fleeting moments for generations to come.
