EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Fiat lux (Let there be light)" by the French School in the 19th century is a mesmerizing piece that encapsulates the essence of enlightenment and innovation. The chromolitho, part of a private collection, showcases a French educational card from the late 19th or early 20th century. This artwork beautifully portrays the significance of information and technology through its depiction of phrases and sayings related to illumination, printing, and invention. It pays homage to Johannes Gutenberg, the German inventor who revolutionized printing with his innovative movable type system during the Renaissance period. The image transports us back to Germany in the 15th century when Gutenberg's groundbreaking creation brought about a new era of knowledge dissemination. The Latin phrase "Fiat lux" serves as an inspiring motto meaning "Let there be light" symbolizing not only physical illumination but also intellectual enlightenment. As we delve into this historical masterpiece, we are reminded of how language and culture intertwine within Europe's rich tapestry. This artwork represents not just German heritage but also European unity as it highlights Germany's contribution to human progress. While appreciating this remarkable print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we are encouraged to reflect on our own role in advancing knowledge and embracing innovation. Let us remember that even small sparks can ignite great transformations – just like Gutenberg did with his revolutionary invention centuries ago.
