EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate skeleton of a pterodactyl alongside that of a bat, both suspended in time. Taken from the renowned work "The world before the creation of man" by Camille Flammarion in 1896, this image transports us back to an era long gone - prehistoric times. The juxtaposition of these two creatures is striking; one representing the ancient giants that once roamed our planet, while the other symbolizes their modern-day descendants. The delicate bones are meticulously preserved, revealing the remarkable similarities and subtle differences between these winged beings. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can't help but marvel at nature's ingenuity. It serves as a reminder of how life has evolved over millions of years, adapting to changing environments and circumstances. The skeletal structures tell tales untold, whispering secrets about flight and survival strategies. Leonard de Selva's expert photography captures every detail with precision and artistry. The monochromatic palette adds depth and enhances the ethereal quality of this mesmerizing composition. This print invites us to contemplate our place in history - a mere blip on Earth's timeline compared to these ancient inhabitants. It sparks curiosity about what else lies buried beneath layers of soil and rock, waiting for discovery. Intriguingly haunting yet undeniably beautiful, this photograph offers a glimpse into an extraordinary past that continues to captivate our imagination today.
