EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "MAP: PANGAEA" takes us back in time to the early 20th century when Alfred Wegener introduced his groundbreaking theory of Pangaea. The illustration, taken from the fourth edition of Wegener's renowned book "Origin of Continents and Oceans" published in 1929, vividly depicts his theory on how the supercontinent Pangaea split to form our present-day continents. In this intricate diagram, we see a world map showcasing the unified landmass that once existed millions of years ago. Pangaea stretches across the entire globe, connecting all continents into one colossal entity. Rivers meander through this ancient landscape, carving their paths as they flow towards distant oceans. Wegener's revolutionary hypothesis challenged conventional geology by suggesting that Earth's continents were not fixed but instead drifted apart over time due to tectonic plate movements. Although initially met with skepticism, his theory laid the foundation for modern plate tectonics and revolutionized our understanding of Earth's geological history. This remarkable print is a testament to Wegener's pioneering work and serves as a reminder of how scientific breakthroughs can reshape our perception of the world around us. It invites us to contemplate the immense forces at play beneath our feet and marvel at how our planet has evolved throughout millennia.
