EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Ideal view of the Earth during the Permian period" is a remarkable piece from Louis Figuier's book "La Terre avant le deluge" published in 1872. Illustrated by Edouard Riou, this artwork takes us back to a time long before our own existence. The scene depicted showcases a dramatic landscape filled with dark storm clouds and torrential rain showers. The black and white tones add an ethereal quality to the image, emphasizing the power and intensity of nature during this prehistoric era. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported to a world untouched by human presence. It reminds us of the vastness and diversity that once existed on our planet millions of years ago. The Permian period was characterized by lush vegetation, exotic creatures, and ever-changing weather patterns. Riou's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving. Each raindrop seems to come alive as it cascades down from the heavens above. The stormy atmosphere adds an element of mystery and awe-inspiring beauty to this ancient landscape. This artwork serves as a reminder of our planet's rich history and how it has evolved over time. It invites us to appreciate the wonders that exist beyond our own existence while also reminding us of nature's immense power. As we admire this engraving, let us reflect on our place within this vast tapestry of life on Earth.
