EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate woodcut illustration of "ZODIAC: AQUARIUS, 1482". The image transports us back to medieval Venice, Italy, where Gaius Julius Hyginus' Poeticon Astronomicon was printed. Aquarius, the water-bearer, takes center stage in this mesmerizing depiction. The artist skillfully personifies Aquarius as a noble figure holding a jug pouring forth water into the cosmos. Symbolizing the zodiac sign's association with water and its life-giving properties, this illustration beautifully captures the essence of Aquarius. The woodcut technique adds an enchanting touch to this artwork. Each line and curve meticulously carved into the wooden block creates a sense of depth and texture that draws viewers closer. It is truly remarkable how such an ancient printing method can still evoke awe-inspiring emotions today. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of astrology's enduring fascination throughout history. The stars above Aquarius serve as celestial guides representing constellations that have captivated humanity for centuries. Whether you're drawn to astrology or simply appreciate artistry from bygone eras, this print offers a glimpse into both realms. Let it inspire your imagination and spark curiosity about our connection to the universe beyond what meets the eye.
