EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the dramatic moment when a tidal wave is unleashed by the launch of the space capsule Columbiad in 1865. The sheer power and force of this monumental event are beautifully depicted, with waves crashing against timbers and creating a sense of chaos and awe-inspiring beauty. The image is inspired by Jules Verne's novel "Autour de la Lune," set in Paris in 1865, where the launch of the Columbiad capsule sends shockwaves through both literature and science fiction. The engraving perfectly encapsulates the fusion of imagination and reality that Verne was known for, as well as his ability to transport readers to otherworldly realms. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the boundless possibilities that lie beyond our earthly confines. The flight of the Columbiad represents not just a technological achievement, but also a triumph of human spirit and ingenuity. It serves as a reminder that even in times of uncertainty and upheaval, there is always room for exploration and discovery. This stunning artwork from Bridgeman Images invites us to ponder our place in the vast expanse of space, while also celebrating the enduring legacy of one of literature's greatest visionaries.
