EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting world of Jules Verne's "Twenty thousand leagues under the seas". The 1870 engraving, part of Hetzel editions by French School, beautifully captures a scene from this extraordinary adventure. In the image, we witness a thrilling moment as a group of brave sailors aboard the sailboat aviso l Alecton confronts an enormous giant octopus. This mythical creature, measuring about six meters in length, is depicted with incredible detail and realism. It looms over the boat menacingly, its tentacles reaching out towards its prey. The artist skillfully portrays the tension and danger that permeate this encounter. We can almost feel the adrenaline coursing through our veins as we imagine ourselves on board that tiny vessel facing such a monstrous adversary. Jules Verne's imaginative storytelling comes alive in this remarkable artwork by Patrice Cartier. As we gaze upon it, we are transported into a world where anything is possible - where literature intertwines with reality and mythical creatures roam beneath the waves. This print serves as both a visual tribute to Jules Verne's genius and an invitation for us to dive deep into our own imaginations. It reminds us of the power of literature to transport us beyond our everyday lives and into realms filled with wonder and adventure.
