EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Prediction of Nostradamus from The Complete Works of Beranger, 1836" takes us back to the 16th century, when the renowned French astrologer Nostradamus made his prophecies. Created by J Constantine Beneworth in the 19th century, this wood engraving beautifully captures the concept of prediction and future foresight. The image depicts a man, possibly Nostradamus himself, deep in thought as he gazes into a crystal ball. Surrounded by books and scrolls that symbolize knowledge and wisdom, he embodies the essence of an astrologer or seer. His intense expression suggests that he is deciphering hidden messages from the celestial bodies above. Through this artwork, we are transported to a time when people sought answers about their destinies through astrology and prophecy. It reminds us of our innate curiosity about what lies ahead and our desire to understand the mysteries of life. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this piece represents an important part of French heritage and artistic history. Its intricate details showcase the skillful craftsmanship involved in wood engraving during that era. As we admire this print today, it serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, humans were fascinated by predictions and eager to unravel what fate had in store for them.
