EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting night of October 4th, 1858, in Paris. The image captures the awe-inspiring sight of "La comet de Donati" as seen from the City of Lights. Published in Amedee Guillemin's renowned book "Le Ciel" in 1877, this photograph transports us to a time when knowledge about astronomy was rapidly expanding. The French School of the 19th century beautifully depicts this celestial phenomenon that graced the skies above Paris. The comet shines brightly against the backdrop of a starry night, illuminating both heaven and earth. Its tail stretches across the sky like a shooting star, leaving spectators mesmerized by its beauty. Intriguingly, our Lady of Paris stands tall on her perch overlooking the Seine River as if witnessing this extraordinary event unfold before her eyes. This juxtaposition between earthly and heavenly elements adds depth to an already captivating scene. Leonard de Selva skillfully captured this momentous occasion with his camera lens, preserving it for future generations to admire. As we gaze upon this remarkable print today, we are reminded not only of France's rich history but also humanity's eternal fascination with what lies beyond our own planet. This print serves as a testament to human curiosity and our unending quest for knowledge about the mysteries that lie within our universe.
