EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Johann Gutenberg, a renowned German printer and goldsmith from the 15th century. In this engraving created by an unknown artist in the 19th century, we see Gutenberg holding a parchment with the words "and the light was". The image beautifully captures his dedication to his craft and his pivotal role in revolutionizing printing. Johann Gutenberg, also known as Johannes Gensfleisch dit Gutenberg, lived between 1394/99-1468 and left an indelible mark on history through his invention of movable type printing press. This groundbreaking innovation transformed the way information was disseminated, paving the way for widespread literacy and knowledge sharing. The portrait exudes a sense of wisdom and determination as Gutenberg gazes into the distance. His passion for printing is palpable, symbolized by him clutching onto that significant piece of parchment. The delicate engravings highlight every intricate detail of this historical figure's face. Stefano Bianchetti has masterfully captured this moment in time through vibrant colors that bring life to an era long gone. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to medieval Germany, where Gutenberg's ingenuity forever changed human communication. This remarkable artwork serves as a testament to Johann Gutenberg's enduring legacy and reminds us of how one individual can shape history through their creativity and perseverance.
