In this wood engraving by Adolf Vollmy, we are transported back to the year 1833, where a village is awestruck by a meteor storm. The night sky above the quaint settlement comes alive as streaks of light shoot across the darkness, creating an enchanting spectacle for all who witness it. A group of people has gathered outdoors to observe this celestial phenomenon, their faces filled with wonder and amazement. They stand in awe beneath a star-studded sky, their eyes fixed on the mesmerizing display unfolding before them. The artist skillfully captures their expressions of astonishment and curiosity as they marvel at nature's extraordinary show. Vollmy's intricate engraving technique brings out every detail of the scene - from the delicate lines illustrating each individual meteor to the subtle shading that adds depth and dimension to both the village below and the vast expanse above. Through his artistry, he transports us back in time to experience this early encounter with astronomy firsthand.
