EDITORS COMMENTS
This digital illustration by Dorling Kindersley, featured in Universal Images Group (UIG), showcases a step-by-step guide on how to create a sundial using simple tools. Against a clean white background, the image presents an innovative and resourceful approach to measuring time outdoors. In this illustrative technique, the artist ingeniously employs a shadow stick and cord to construct the sundial. The shadow stick is strategically positioned between two stones, while a 180-degree arc is meticulously drawn connecting them. As sunlight casts its rays upon the scene, it creates shadows that align with specific markings on the arc. The horizontal composition of this studio shot allows for clear visibility of each element involved in crafting this ancient timekeeping device. The arrow sign indicates the direction of movement as time progresses throughout the day. With no people present in the image, viewers are encouraged to focus solely on understanding and appreciating this ingenious method of tracking time based on sunlight and shadows. This visually appealing artwork serves as both an educational tool and an aesthetic delight. Whether you have an interest in science or simply appreciate creative problem-solving techniques, this digitally generated print offers insight into one of humanity's earliest methods of telling time – all under bright daylight against a serene backdrop.
