EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Dans Ce Jardin Celeste" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing an engraving by the French School. Housed in a private collection, this artwork offers a glimpse into the distant past and explores themes of creation and evolution. The image depicts Edgard Quinet placing insects, particularly bees, as the creators of a new universe within this celestial garden. As we move forward in time, larger mammals such as gibbons and orangutans are introduced. Finally, at the pinnacle of this evolutionary journey, we witness the emergence of the first thinking being. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for Henri Du Cleuziou's book "La Creation de L'Homme et les Premiers Ages de L'Humanite" published by Marpon et Flammarion in 1887. It beautifully captures mankind's early existence and its connection to nature. With its historical significance and prehistoric subject matter, this artwork transports us to a world long gone but not forgotten. The artist skillfully portrays elements from biblical narratives like the Garden of Eden or Paradise while also incorporating scientific theories on human origins. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of our humble beginnings and how far humanity has come on its extraordinary journey through time.
