EDITORS COMMENTS
This 15th-century drawing captures a mysterious scene of a man venturing into the water with an intriguing mask. The artist, unknown to us, has skillfully depicted this enigmatic moment that leaves us wondering about the purpose and significance behind this act. The man's attire suggests he is prepared for a dive, wearing what appears to be an early version of a scuba suit. His casual demeanor adds an element of curiosity as it contrasts with the advanced equipment he possesses. As we gaze at this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness his exploration of the underwater world. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every stroke brings life to both the figure and his surroundings. The artist expertly conveys movement through delicate lines and shading techniques, capturing the essence of water enveloping our protagonist. As we ponder over this ancient depiction, questions arise: What lies beneath those depths? Is he on a quest for treasure or knowledge? Or perhaps there is something more profound hidden within these waters? Regardless of its origins and purpose, this print from Giancarlo Costa's private collection offers us a glimpse into history while igniting our imagination. It serves as a reminder that even centuries-old art can still captivate and intrigue contemporary audiences.
