EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the Aurora Borealis, also known as the Northern Lights. Created by Rapine in 1872, this artwork depicts a curtain-like formation of the aurora observed in Bossekop, Norway on January 19,1839. The ethereal phenomenon of the Northern Lights is caused by the interaction between particles in the solar wind and Earth's magnetic field. While typically visible in polar regions, these enchanting lights can occasionally be seen at lower latitudes during periods of intense solar activity. Amedee Guillemin's book "The Forces of Nature" featured this stunning chromolithograph to illustrate one of nature's most awe-inspiring spectacles. The image transports viewers to a night sky filled with stars and vibrant colors dancing across the atmosphere. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of our planet's intricate relationship with its surroundings. It highlights both scientific knowledge and artistic expression as it explores concepts such as radiation, magnetosphere, and natural phenomena. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Heritage Images' collection, we are reminded that there is still much about our world that remains mysterious and breathtakingly beautiful.
