EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a boat, captured through the intricate art of xilography. The image is taken from Sebastien Munster's renowned work, Universal Cosmography, published in Basel in 1558. Created by an anonymous German artist from the 16th century, this piece now resides in a private collection. The boat depicted in this print exudes a sense of adventure and exploration. Its elegant design resembles that of a caravel, a popular transport vehicle during the Renaissance era. The attention to detail is remarkable; every line and curve meticulously etched into the medium by the skilled hands of the artist. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back to an age when maritime travel was at its peak. We can almost feel the wind against our faces as we imagine ourselves aboard this vessel, sailing across vast oceans towards unknown horizons. Giancarlo Costa has beautifully captured this historical masterpiece with his lens, preserving it for future generations to admire and appreciate. Through his photography skills, he allows us to delve into history and experience moments long gone. This print serves as a reminder of humanity's unyielding desire for discovery and adventure. It stands as both an artistic marvel and a testament to our enduring fascination with exploration throughout time.
