EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an artist's impression of the legendary city of Atlantis. According to Greek philosopher Plato, who first mentioned Atlantis in 360BC, this mythical city was believed to have existed on an island located at the mouth of the Pillars of Hercules, now known as the Strait of Gibraltar. Despite numerous expeditions undertaken in search of this fabled civilization, its existence and precise location remain unconfirmed. Legend has it that around 9600 BC, Atlantis met a tragic fate when it was engulfed by a colossal flood and submerged beneath the vast ocean. This image evokes a sense of awe and wonder as we gaze upon what could be remnants or echoes from this lost city's glorious past. The artwork beautifully captures elements associated with ancient maritime civilizations: classical architecture, statues depicting enigmatic figures from mythological tales, and monumental structures that once adorned this urban marvel. It serves as a reminder of our fascination with history and mythology while igniting our imagination about what might lie hidden beneath the depths. As we ponder over this illustration steeped in archaeological significance, we are reminded that even though centuries have passed since Plato's accounts were written down, Atlantis continues to captivate our collective consciousness—a testament to humanity's enduring curiosity for uncovering secrets buried within prehistoric times.
