EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving, titled "VERNE: JOURNEY" takes us on a thrilling expedition into the prehistoric world as envisioned by the renowned French author, Jules Verne. Inspired by his iconic novel, "A Journey to the Center of the Earth" this 19th-century edition print showcases an extraordinary illustration crafted by Edouard Riou. As we delve into this mesmerizing scene, we are transported back in time to a land untouched by modern civilization. Towering above all else is an enormous elephant-like creature with elongated tusks and a majestic presence that commands awe and respect. Its colossal frame hints at the incredible diversity of life that once roamed our planet. Intriguingly, amidst this primeval landscape, we encounter other fascinating creatures from long ago. A pterodactyl soars through the sky with its wings outstretched while a turtle-like reptile lumbers across the terrain below. These ancient beings remind us of nature's boundless creativity and evolution's remarkable journey. Adding charm to this tableau is a loyal dog faithfully accompanying our adventurers on their perilous quest. Meanwhile, an elegant bird gracefully perches upon a nearby branch, observing their every move with curiosity. This wood engraving not only captures Verne's vivid imagination but also serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with exploration and discovery. It invites us to immerse ourselves in worlds unknown – where fantasy intertwines with reality – igniting our own sense of wonder
