EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases page 270 of the renowned book "Georgii Agricolae De re metallica libri XII". Published in 1556, this masterpiece by Georgius Agricola delves into the world of mining and metallurgy. The woodcut and letterpress techniques used to create this print beautifully bring to life the intricate details found within its pages. Page 270 offers a glimpse into the comprehensive knowledge contained within this remarkable work. It vividly describes various aspects related to metals, including their extraction, tools, machinery, and all other pertinent subjects that pertain to the field. Not only does it provide lucid descriptions but also presents accompanying illustrations that further enhance understanding. The Latin and Germanic annotations meticulously incorporated alongside these images serve as an invaluable aid for readers seeking clarity on specific terms or concepts. This thoughtful inclusion ensures that even complex ideas are presented in a manner that is easily comprehensible. Moreover, another fascinating aspect of this collection is "De animantibus subterraneis liber" which explores underground creatures and adds yet another layer of intrigue to Agricola's extensive research. As we gaze upon this print from the Liszt Collection, we cannot help but appreciate how it allows us to witness history firsthand. It serves as a testament not only to Agricola's profound expertise but also to the craftsmanship involved in producing such an exquisite publication during a time when printing technology was still in its infancy.
