EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the year 1496, showcasing a mesmerizing engraving from the German School of the 15th century. The image depicts a mythical creature with an intriguing combination of human and animal body parts, complete with a dragon tail. Surrounding this enigmatic being are elements such as a majestic castle, an ornate gate, and an ancient urn. The Latin title "Roma Caput Mundi" translates to "Rome, capital of the world" alluding to the symbolic significance of this artwork. It represents both imperial power and Italian Renaissance symbolism. The surreal composition merges elements of allegory and mythology in its portrayal of this hybrid creature. The attention to detail in this photomechanical print is remarkable, capturing every scale on the dragon's body and every intricate feature on its anthropomorphic form. The juxtaposition between fantastical creatures and architectural structures creates a sense of otherworldliness within this piece. As we delve into this visual masterpiece further, we discover additional symbols such as horses, castles, turrets, and gates that add depth to its narrative. This bizarre yet captivating artwork invites us into a realm where mythological beings coexist with human civilization. With its rich historical context and artistic prowess, this lithographic print serves as both an homage to Northern Renaissance artistry and an exploration into humanity's fascination with mythical creatures throughout time.
