EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in maritime history. In 1885, the intrepid diver Alexander Lambert achieved an extraordinary feat by reaching the treasure chamber of the sunken ship "Alfonso XII" deep within the waters of the Canary Islands. The period illustration, created by an unknown artist in the 19th century, beautifully depicts this remarkable achievement. The image showcases Lambert's daring dive into the depths as he explores the wreckage of this legendary vessel. The intricate details of the cross-sectioned ship reveal its grandeur and architectural beauty even after being submerged for years. Lambert's scuba suit, a groundbreaking invention at that time, symbolizes human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit to explore uncharted territories. This print is part of a private collection and serves as a testament to mankind's fascination with history and adventure. It reminds us of our innate curiosity about lost treasures and forgotten stories hidden beneath ocean waves. Giancarlo Costa has skillfully preserved this historical moment through his lens, capturing both artistry and significance. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing engraving, we are transported back in time to witness Lambert's courageous exploration firsthand. This artwork not only celebrates his triumph but also pays homage to all pioneers who fearlessly push boundaries in their quest for discovery.
