EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a dramatic moment at sea as a massive whale attacks a ship. The image is taken from an edition of "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" by renowned cartographer Abraham Ortelius, dating back to 1584. The plate showcases the incredible detail and skill of Ortelius' work, depicting the perilous encounter between man and beast. The scene unfolds with intensity, as the monstrous whale rises out of the water, its enormous size casting a shadow over the ship. The vessel appears small and vulnerable in comparison to this mighty creature of the deep. The artist's engraving technique brings every line and texture to life, highlighting both the power of nature and human vulnerability. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are transported back in time to an era when legends were born on treacherous seas. This image serves as a reminder of mankind's constant struggle against formidable forces beyond our control. Giancarlo Costa has expertly captured this iconic moment through his lens, preserving it for future generations to appreciate. His attention to detail allows us to marvel at every intricate stroke made by Ortelius centuries ago. This remarkable piece evokes awe-inspiring emotions while reminding us that even in our modern age, there are still mysteries yet to be discovered beneath the surface of our vast oceans.
