EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving titled "Hooky gneiss, on Lewis" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the remarkable beauty of nature's wonders. The print, created by an anonymous German artist from that era, is now part of a private collection. The image transports us to the rugged and enchanting landscapes of Lewis in Scotland. Here, we witness the awe-inspiring sight of curved rock formations known as Hooky gneiss. These unique geological features are a testament to the power and artistry of natural forces over millions of years. Published between 1790 and 1830 in Friedrich Justin Bertuch's "A Bilderbuch fAor KinderA" (Picture Book for Children), this engraving captures not only the physicality but also the essence of these landforms. It serves as a reminder that our world is full of extraordinary phenomena waiting to be discovered and appreciated. The intricate details and vibrant colors in this artwork bring life to every curve and crevice found within these ancient rocks. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost feel ourselves standing on Lewis Island, surrounded by its breathtaking natural beauty. Thanks to ePurix Verlag Volker Christen's efforts in preserving such historical treasures like this engraving, we have the opportunity to admire and reflect upon Earth's magnificent creations from centuries past.
