EDITORS COMMENTS
The Edge of the Firmament: A Glimpse into Medieval Cosmology". This print showcases "The edge of the firmament (Flammarion engraving)" from Camille Flammarion's renowned work, "L'atmosphère. Meteorologie populaire". Created in the 16th-17th centuries, this woodcut engraving offers a fascinating insight into medieval cosmology and celestial beliefs. In this intricate artwork, we are transported back to an era where astronomy was shrouded in mystery and mythology. The image depicts a figure peering through a gap in the celestial sphere, symbolizing humanity's relentless curiosity about the universe. With its flat earth representation and allegorical elements, it reflects both scientific knowledge and imaginative storytelling prevalent during that time. The anonymous artist skillfully captures the essence of medieval cosmology by blending fine art with historical significance. This print not only serves as a visual feast for enthusiasts but also acts as a window into our ancestors' understanding of their place within the cosmos. Preserved in Zentralbibliothek Zurich's collection, this remarkable piece transcends time and invites us to ponder upon our own relationship with the vastness of space. It reminds us that throughout history, humans have sought answers beyond what is visible to them – reaching for knowledge that lies at "the edge of the firmament.
