EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic portrait of Socrates, a renowned philosopher from ancient Greece. Created by Hartmann Schedel in 1497 as part of his work "Liber Chronicarum" this engraving beautifully captures the essence and wisdom of Socrates. Socrates, born in 470 BC and tragically executed in 399 BC, is regarded as one of the founding figures of Western philosophy. Known for his critical thinking and relentless pursuit of truth, he left an indelible mark on intellectual discourse that continues to resonate today. In this portrait, Schedel masterfully conveys the depth and complexity of Socrates' character. The lines etched into his face speak volumes about a life dedicated to contemplation and introspection. His piercing gaze seems to penetrate through time itself, inviting viewers to engage with their own philosophical inquiries. The antique aesthetic adds an air of authenticity to this remarkable piece. It serves as a window into ancient Greece, allowing us to glimpse into a world where great minds like Socrates roamed freely. Giancarlo Costa's expert photography brings out every intricate detail with precision and clarity. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to witness the presence and brilliance of one of history's most influential thinkers. This print is not just an image; it is a tribute to intellectual curiosity and timeless wisdom that transcends centuries.
