EDITORS COMMENTS
This cross-section illustration of Earth, dating back to 1664, offers a fascinating glimpse into the dynamic geological processes that shape our planet. At the heart of this intricate diagram lies the central fire, representing the molten core believed to fuel the Earth's magnetic field and volcanic activity. Surrounding the core are lateral fires, which symbolize the convection currents responsible for the movement of tectonic plates and the formation of volcanic belts. The surface of the globe is adorned with an intricate network of volcanoes, some dormant and others actively spewing lava and ash into the atmosphere. The rings of volcanic eruption depicted in this image highlight the destructive yet essential role that volcanoes play in shaping the Earth's landscape and environment. Volcanoes are among the most awe-inspiring natural phenomena on our planet. They have fascinated scientists, explorers, and artists throughout history, and continue to captivate our collective imagination. This stunning 17th-century print provides a unique perspective on the inner workings of our world, offering a glimpse into the fiery heart of Earth and the powerful forces that drive its constant transformation. This cross-section image of Earth, with its central fire, lateral fires, and volcanoes on the surface, is a testament to the wonders of the natural world and the enduring human curiosity that drives us to explore and understand the mysteries of our planet.
