EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the early 19th century, capturing a moment of subterranean mystery. Titled "Subterranean Disappearance Of The Rhone, Near Geneva" this print is a true testament to the power of nature and human curiosity. Engraved by Hay after Craig, this illustration comes from the renowned book "The Gallery Of Nature And Art Volume II" published in London around 1823. Its horizontal composition allows us to fully immerse ourselves in the scene, as if we are witnessing this extraordinary event firsthand. The image depicts the Rhone River vanishing underground near Geneva. The artist's attention to detail brings every element of this subterranean landscape to life – from the rugged rocks surrounding the riverbed to the swirling currents disappearing into darkness. Ken Welsh's skillful reproduction captures not only the technical precision of Hay's engraving but also its emotive power. Through his lens, we can almost feel our hearts race with anticipation as we contemplate what lies beyond that mysterious abyss. This print serves as a reminder of humanity's eternal fascination with natural wonders and our relentless pursuit of knowledge. It invites us to ponder on how much has changed since then while marveling at how some mysteries still endure through time.
