MOONCHANTMENT

by Daniele Luciani

On July 20, 1969, the US Apollo 11 mission achieved the first crewed moon landing, with Commander Neil Armstrong becoming the first person to set foot on the moon. After leaving his footprint on the lunar surface, Armstrong uttered the historic phrase, “One small step for man, one big step for mankind.” The moon has always held an irresistible fascination for mankind and has inspired various art forms. Moonchantment is an exhibition that features a selection of images from the most beautiful picture books on the theme of the moon.
