EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the powerful and enigmatic figure of Mars, the Greek god of war, also known as Ares in Roman mythology. Representing a male planet characterized by its intense heat and fiery nature, Mars holds immense significance in astrology. Those born under this celestial body were believed to possess a choleric temperament, embodying traits such as passion, assertiveness, and determination. The woodcut image from Solensis Aratus Phaenomena et Prognostica transports us back to Cologne in 1569 when this artwork was created. It beautifully captures the essence of Mars with intricate details that depict his strength and dominance. The planet's association with iron is symbolized through its metal counterpart seen within the woodcut. Mars' influence extends beyond mere symbolism; it governs specific aspects of time as well. Tuesday represents the day associated with this mighty deity while Saturday signifies its nightfall. Furthermore, Mars rules over summer - a season marked by fervor and intensity. As we delve into ancient mythology through this remarkable piece of artistry, we are reminded of humanity's fascination with celestial bodies and their impact on our lives. This print serves as a timeless reminder of how cultures throughout history have sought to understand and interpret these cosmic forces that shape our world both physically and spiritually.
