EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into Jules Verne's imaginative world. The print depicts a pivotal moment from his renowned novel "Round the Moon" where Ardan, one of the main characters, ignites a match that will set in motion their extraordinary journey. The intricate details and skillful craftsmanship of this illustration are evident as Emile Bayard brings Verne's words to life. The viewer is transported to an era when space exploration was merely a dream, yet held an undeniable allure for many. The image showcases a futuristic spacecraft or capsule poised for its interstellar adventure. Its sleek design and meticulous rendering hint at the technological marvels that lay within. As Ardan applies the lighted match with anticipation and determination, we can almost feel the excitement building up around him. This wood engraving captures not only the essence of Verne's visionary storytelling but also reflects on humanity's eternal fascination with outer space. It serves as a reminder of how literature has always been instrumental in pushing boundaries and inspiring scientific progress. As we admire this piece from The Granger Collection, New York, let it transport us back in time to an age when exploring uncharted territories was limited only by our imagination.
