EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Allegory of human hearing and music" from the renowned Utriusque Cosmi Historia Tractatus. Published in Frankfurt between 1617-24, this engraving by the German School of the 17th century is a true masterpiece. The image depicts an intricate labyrinth representing the inner workings of the ear, located at the top right corner. This fascinating visual representation was created by Robert Fludd, an English physician and writer known for his exploration of occultism and mysteries surrounding human life. Fludd's work as a hermetic scholar and scientist shines through in this piece, which beautifully combines elements of science, medicine, musical harmony, architecture, renaissance artistry, and Rosicrucian philosophy. The diagram presents a comprehensive theory on auditory perception and sound. As we delve into this artwork's details, it becomes evident that it not only serves as a scientific illustration but also reflects Fludd's deep understanding of medical health. The allegorical nature invites viewers to contemplate how our sense of hearing connects us to music and influences our overall well-being. Preserved in Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France; this print holds historical significance as it captures both Fludd's genius mind and the artistic brilliance prevalent during that era.
