EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "View of a forest and a marecage of the coal period (carbonifere)" takes us back in time to the prehistoric era. The image, originally an engraving by Edouard Riou from Louis Figuier's book "La Terre avant le deluge" published in 1872, beautifully captures the essence of a landscape that existed millions of years ago. The scene depicts a dense forest with towering trees stretching towards the sky, creating an enchanting canopy overhead. Amidst this lush greenery lies a mysterious marecage or marshland, shrouded in mist and teeming with life. This unique combination of forest and wetland offers us a glimpse into the diverse ecosystems that thrived during the carboniferous period. As we observe this mesmerizing artwork by Patrice Cartier, we are transported to an ancient world where giant ferns and primitive plants dominated the landscape. It is fascinating to imagine how different our planet looked during this time when coal was being formed beneath our feet. Through this photograph, we are reminded of Earth's rich geological history and its ever-changing landscapes. It serves as both a reminder of our planet's past and an inspiration for preserving its natural wonders for future generations to appreciate.
