EDITORS COMMENTS
In this wood engraving, we are transported to the fantastical world of Jules Verne's "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea". The image depicts Captain Nemo, a mysterious and enigmatic character, standing on the exterior deck of his incredible submarine. With the vast ocean stretching out behind him, he is seen taking the altitude of the sun. The illustration beautifully captures both the sense of adventure and scientific exploration that permeate Verne's iconic novel. The intricate details in Alphonse de Neuville's drawing bring to life Nemo's extraordinary vessel and its crew as they navigate through uncharted waters. As Captain Nemo stands tall against an awe-inspiring backdrop, it becomes evident that he is not merely a seafarer but also a man driven by curiosity and intellect. His measurement of the sun symbolizes his relentless pursuit for knowledge and understanding of the natural world. This 19th-century engraving serves as a visual testament to Jules Verne's enduring legacy in literature. It invites us to delve into an imaginative realm where science fiction meets maritime exploration. Through this print, we can almost hear the crashing waves and feel ourselves being swept away on an exhilarating journey beneath the sea alongside Captain Nemo himself.
