EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment from Jules Verne's timeless adventure novel, "Around the World in Eighty Days". Engraved by Adolphe François Pannemaker in 1873, it depicts the intense cold and incredible speed that left the characters speechless. The image transports us to a frozen landscape where Phileas Fogg, Jean Passepartout, and their companions brave the elements on their daring journey. The frigid air bites at their skin as they fix their gaze ahead, determined to conquer this arduous challenge. Their breath forms icy clouds in front of them while shivers run down their spines. The wind howls mercilessly around them as they sail through vast prairies and snowy terrains. In this frozen tableau, we witness not only the physical trials faced by these intrepid travelers but also the power of Verne's imagination brought to life through Pannemaker's skilled engraving. This print encapsulates both the excitement and danger inherent in circumnavigating the globe within such a tight timeframe. As we admire this work of art, we are reminded of humanity's unyielding spirit for exploration and adventure. It serves as a testament to our insatiable curiosity about distant lands and our relentless pursuit of pushing boundaries. This remarkable depiction invites us into an extraordinary world where time is fleeting but possibilities are endless.
