Anthropocène Muséum #1

A haunting deep-green cover sets the tone for this ambitious 2023 French-language work from Exemplaire — the title translates roughly as *Anthropocene Museum: A Guided Tour of the Ruins of a Self-Destroyed Civilization*, and that subtitle alone signals something genuinely thought-provoking. The cover's sole visual element, a meticulously rendered container ship rendered in gold linework, floats in stark isolation, evoking both industrial might and quiet obsolescence. By Lorrain Oiseau and Maxime Morin, this first volume promises a reflective, museum-like reckoning with humanity's footprint on the planet.
