EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving titled "The Alignments of Carnac" takes us on a journey back in time to the mystical region of Brittany, France. The intricate details and skilled craftsmanship showcased in this print by French School transport us to an era long gone. The image captures the enigmatic beauty of the famous megalithic site known as the Alignments of Carnac. Stretching for over three miles, these ancient standing stones have fascinated archaeologists and visitors alike for centuries. Each stone, or menhir, seems to hold secrets from a forgotten past, leaving us with more questions than answers. As we gaze upon this engraving, we can almost feel the weight of history resting upon our shoulders. The artist's meticulous strokes bring out every nuance and texture of these weathered monoliths against a backdrop that hints at both mystery and majesty. Leonard de Selva's skillful rendering allows us to appreciate not only the grandeur but also the sheer scale of this remarkable archaeological wonder. It serves as a reminder that even after all these years, humankind is still captivated by our ancestors' ability to create such awe-inspiring structures. This print is not just a piece of art; it is an invitation to explore our connection with those who came before us and marvel at their ingenuity. Let it serve as a window into another world – one where ancient rituals were performed amidst towering stones that continue to stand tall against the test of time.
