EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the Middle Ages, where science and philosophy intertwined in a beautiful allegory. The image is an illustration attributed to Holbein, found in the German translation of Boethius' "Consolation of Philosophy" from 1537. Published in London in 1878 by Paul Lacroix, this piece captures the essence of medieval thought. In the presence of Philosophy herself, we see various natural sciences represented symbolically. Each discipline stands as a testament to humanity's quest for knowledge and understanding. From astronomy to botany, these fields are depicted with intricate detail and precision. Holbein's masterful wood engraving transports us into a world where intellect reigns supreme. The delicate lines and shading evoke a sense of reverence for both artistry and academia. This image serves as a reminder that throughout history, science has always been accompanied by philosophical inquiry. It highlights the interconnectedness between these two realms of human exploration. As we gaze upon this timeless masterpiece, we are reminded that even centuries ago, people sought wisdom through observation and contemplation. This print invites us to reflect on our own pursuit of knowledge while paying homage to those who came before us. Ken Welsh's skillful capture ensures that this historical gem continues to inspire awe and curiosity among all who encounter it.
