EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from Jules Verne's "Autour de la Lune" transports us to a world of imagination and wonder. The image depicts a space capsule, seemingly minuscule in comparison to the vast disc of the Moon looming overhead. The intricate details and skilled craftsmanship of the engraving bring this scene to life, capturing the essence of early science fiction literature. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the boundless possibilities that exist beyond our own planet. Jules Verne was truly ahead of his time, envisioning space travel long before it became a reality. His work continues to inspire generations with its sense of adventure and exploration. The juxtaposition of the tiny capsule against the immense backdrop of the Moon serves as a reminder of humanity's quest for knowledge and discovery. It ignites our curiosity about what lies beyond our reach and challenges us to dream big. This wood engraving is not just a piece of art; it is a portal into another world where anything is possible. It invites us to imagine ourselves aboard that capsule, embarking on an epic journey through space towards unknown horizons.
