EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "HAMMOCK, 1563" takes us back in time to the New World, where we witness a Native Indian peacefully sleeping in a hammock. The woodcut from Girolamo Benzonis Historia del Mondo Nuovo, dating back to 1563, beautifully captures this scene of tranquility and cultural significance. In this image, we are transported to an era when America was still being explored and discovered by European settlers. The Native Indian depicted here represents the indigenous people who inhabited these lands long before colonization took place. As he rests in his hammock suspended between two trees, one can't help but feel a sense of awe for the simplicity and harmony with nature that characterized their way of life. The woodcut technique used adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its historical appeal. It reminds us of the importance of preserving our heritage and understanding the diverse cultures that shaped our world today. Sarin Images / The Granger Collection has masterfully captured this moment frozen in time through their artistry. This print allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of this particular scene but also serves as a reminder of our shared history as human beings on this planet.
