This print transports us into the thrilling world of Jules Verne's "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea". The image depicts a dramatic scene where a giant octopus viciously attacks the iconic submarine vessel Nautilus. Crafted as a wood engraving by Alphonse de Neuville for an 1870 edition of Verne's masterpiece, this artwork beautifully captures the intensity and danger lurking in the depths of the ocean. The intricate details showcased in this print are truly mesmerizing. Each tentacle of the monstrous octopus is intricately rendered, highlighting its immense power and malevolence.
