Navigation by Stars, 1575: A Glimpse into the Age of Exploration". This print takes us back to the year 1575, during the remarkable age of exploration. In this woodcut from Andre Thevet's renowned work, La cosmographie universelle, we witness sailors skillfully navigating their way through the vast ocean by relying on celestial guidance. Underneath a starry night sky, a majestic sailing ship known as a caravel gracefully glides across the dark waters. Its crew members diligently study the constellations above them, using their knowledge of these heavenly bodies to chart their course and ensure safe passage. The intricate rigging and towering mast stand tall against an expansive horizon that seems endless. As our gaze explores this scene further, we notice an element of mystery lurking in the depths below. A sea monster emerges from beneath the waves - a reminder of both real dangers faced by sailors at sea and mythical creatures that fueled their imaginations. This woodcut captures not only a moment in time but also represents humanity's unyielding spirit for discovery and adventure. It serves as a testament to mankind's ability to navigate unknown territories with determination and ingenuity. Transport yourself back to this Renaissance era where brave souls embarked on perilous journeys across uncharted waters guided solely by stars – an awe-inspiring testament to human resilience and curiosity about what lies beyond our familiar shores.
