EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing piece of art titled "ZODIAC: GEMINI, 1482". The artwork beautifully depicts the zodiac sign Gemini, represented by the symbol of twins. This woodcut illustration is taken from the renowned book "Poeticon Astronomicon" written by Gaius Julius Hyginus and printed in Venice, Italy in 1482. The intricate details of this medieval woodcut are truly remarkable. The twins are depicted with delicate wings on their backs, symbolizing their ethereal nature. They stand side by side, each holding a scythe that represents the duality within this astrological sign - one twin representing life and growth while the other embodies death and transformation. This artwork not only serves as an exquisite representation of Gemini but also holds deep occult symbolism. It personifies the essence of this zodiac sign with its complex imagery and celestial elements. Printed over five centuries ago, this woodcut has stood the test of time to become a cherished piece for astrology enthusiasts and art lovers alike. Its historical significance combined with its artistic beauty makes it a true treasure to behold.
