EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back to the 19th century, capturing a moment of nature's raw power. The illustration depicts a tree that has been struck by lightning in Hanwell, west London. The sheer force of the strike is evident as the tree stands split along its length, revealing the aftermath of this electrifying encounter. The artist skillfully captures the intensity of this natural phenomenon. As lightning surges through the sap within the tree, an explosion-like energy release occurs, causing it to crack and ultimately destroy itself. The intricate details showcase both the delicate branches reaching towards an open sky and the destructive power contained within them. This engraving was published in 1800 in Gentlemans Magazine, serving as a testament to mankind's fascination with nature's forces even centuries ago. It serves as a reminder that despite our advancements, we are still at mercy to these powerful elements. Todd-White Art Photography beautifully presents this historical artwork from Science Photo Library, allowing us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its scientific significance. This print invites contemplation on themes such as electricity, weather patterns, and our relationship with nature – all encapsulated within one striking image captured over two centuries ago.
