EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from Jules Verne's iconic novel, "De la terre A la lune" (From the Earth to the Moon), published in 1872. The image depicts Maston, one of the main characters, who has undergone a significant transformation. In this momentous story of anticipation and adventure set in the future, Maston had fattened up for an unknown reason. The engraving beautifully portrays Maston's physical appearance with intricate details and precision. His figure is depicted as robust and well-fed, suggesting that he may have indulged himself during his journey or perhaps experienced some unforeseen circumstances that led to his weight gain. Jules Verne's literary masterpiece takes readers on a thrilling voyage as a group of ambitious individuals plan to launch themselves into space using a giant cannon. The novel explores themes of human curiosity, scientific progress, and the boundless possibilities of exploration beyond our planet. Leonard de Selva skillfully captures this pivotal moment in his photograph, allowing us to delve deeper into Verne's imaginative world. This artwork serves as a visual reminder of the power literature holds in shaping our understanding of what lies ahead. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we are reminded that even within fiction lies profound truths about human nature and our insatiable desire for discovery.
