EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Edward Kelley, English astrologer and alchemist, c1790" takes us back to the mystical world of the 18th century. In this intriguing scene, we witness Edward Kelley, a renowned astrologer and alchemist from England, accompanied by his faithful assistant as they conjure a spirit in a dimly lit churchyard. The atmosphere is shrouded in mystery as the moon casts an ethereal glow upon the ancient gravestones. A towering tree stands tall behind them, its branches reaching towards the heavens like a gateway to another realm. The solar system is subtly depicted in the background, reminding us of Kelley's deep connection with celestial bodies and their influence on human destiny. Kelley's occupation as an astrologer merges seamlessly with his exploration of alchemy and witchcraft. This print captures both his scientific pursuits and his involvement in occult practices that were prevalent during this time period. As we gaze at this image captured through an engraving technique, we are transported to a different era where religion coexisted with esoteric beliefs. It serves as a reminder of how people sought answers beyond conventional wisdom and embraced spirituality alongside their Christian faith. With its monochrome palette enhancing the eerie ambiance of this scene, Ann Ronan Pictures has beautifully preserved Edward Kelley's enigmatic presence for generations to come.
