EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1932 with this illustration of the Atlantropa Project, featured on an exhibition flyer created by Herman Sörgel. The ambitious project aimed to reshape the geography of Europe and Africa by damming the Strait of Gibraltar and lowering the Mediterranean Sea, creating new land for settlement and agriculture.
Sörgel's intricate design and visionary concept are beautifully captured in this color photograph, showcasing his Bauhaus-inspired graphic arts style. The flyer serves as a window into a moment in history when bold ideas were being proposed to address economic and environmental challenges facing Europe.
As you gaze upon this print, you can't help but be drawn into the world of Panropa - Sörgel's vision for a united European continent connected through infrastructure projects like Atlantropa. The private collection that houses this piece is a treasure trove of historical artifacts that offer glimpses into past dreams and aspirations.
This image is not just a snapshot from the past; it is a reminder of human ingenuity and our endless quest for progress. Let yourself be transported to a time when anything seemed possible, thanks to visionaries like Herman Sörgel who dared to dream big.
