EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intriguing world of human monsters, as depicted in an engraving from "De monstrorum natura, causis et differentiis" by Fortunio Liceti. Created by an Italian scientist in 1646, this artwork delves into the realm of imagination and curiosity. In this image, we are introduced to a trio of extraordinary beings. The first is a man with the head of a duck, his features blending seamlessly with those of the avian creature. His eyes exude both intelligence and mystery, leaving us wondering about his existence and origins. Next, we encounter a man with the body of a lion. Majestic and powerful, he stands tall with regal poise. This hybrid figure embodies strength and ferocity while challenging our perception of what it means to be human. Lastly, we are confronted by another anomaly - a man adorned with palm hands instead of conventional ones. These unique appendages evoke thoughts on adaptation and evolution; they symbolize our capacity for transformation beyond traditional boundaries. Through this engraving's intricate details and masterful execution, artist Giancarlo Costa transports us to a world where reality intertwines with fantasy. It serves as a reminder that diversity exists not only within species but also within ourselves as humans. As we gaze upon these enigmatic creatures frozen in time through artistry's lens, let us embrace their presence as symbols of individuality and celebrate the boundless wonders that lie within humanity's vast tapestry.
