EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable project from the middle of the 18th century - the monster cannon. The image is a reduction to a quarter of a Dutch engraving by I. W. B. del Gabriel Bodenher, skillfully sculpted and printed by Augustus Vind. The intricately detailed engraving depicts an awe-inspiring cannon, designed with sheer power in mind. Its size and scale are truly monstrous, evoking both fascination and intimidation. This historical piece offers us a glimpse into the technological advancements of that era. Originally featured in "La Nature: revue des sciences et de leurs applications aux arts et à l'industrie" on September 14th, 1895, this print holds immense historical value. It was part of Gaston Tissandier's collection before finding its way into this private collection. Stefano Bianchetti has masterfully captured the essence of this engraving through his photography skills, preserving its intricate details for generations to come. The monochromatic palette adds depth and timelessness to the image. As we gaze upon this fascinating artwork, we can't help but marvel at human ingenuity throughout history. The monster cannon stands as a testament to our relentless pursuit of progress and innovation in weaponry during the 18th century - an era defined by great strides in science and technology.
