EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Arctic Phenomena" takes us back in time to the 17th century, when exploration and expedition were at their peak. The image showcases a majestic galleon ship sailing through icy waters, surrounded by the awe-inspiring beauty of the Arctic landscape. The artist from the Netherlandish School skillfully captures the essence of this frozen world. Intriguingly, what steals our attention is not only the grandeur of the ship but also the ethereal display happening above it. The mesmerizing Northern Lights or Aurora Borealis illuminate the sky with vibrant hues of green and purple, creating a breathtaking spectacle that seems almost otherworldly. This print is an excerpt from Gerrit de Veer's Description of his Voyages, published in Amsterdam in 1600. It serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and discovery during that era. As we gaze upon this artwork today, we are reminded of both our fascination with distant lands and our desire to unravel nature's mysteries. The historical significance of this engraving cannot be overstated; it offers us a glimpse into past explorations while simultaneously evoking wonder for natural phenomena that continue to captivate us even now. This private collection piece has been preserved throughout centuries and allows us to appreciate both its artistic merit and its cultural importance.
