EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from 1906 showcases the Colony of Streptococcus pneumoniae with and without bubble capsules, providing a fascinating glimpse into the microscopic world of bacteria. Created by an unknown German artist, this print is part of a private collection. Bacteria, as depicted in this artwork, are prokaryotic microorganisms that come in various shapes and sizes. Ranging from spheres to rods and spirals, these ancient life forms were among the first to appear on Earth and can be found in almost every habitat imaginable – from soil and water to radioactive waste and even deep within the Earth's crust. The presence or absence of bubble capsules surrounding the colonies is clearly visible in this lithograph. These capsules play a crucial role in protecting bacteria against external threats such as antibiotics or immune system attacks. Microbiology enthusiasts will appreciate how this artwork beautifully captures both the scientific intricacies and artistic beauty of these tiny organisms. The detailed engraving allows viewers to observe individual cells under a microscope slide, highlighting their cellular structure. Streptococcus pneumoniae is particularly notorious for causing diseases like pneumonia. Understanding its behavior through microscopy has been instrumental in developing treatments for related illnesses. Overall, this lithograph serves as a reminder of our complex relationship with microorganisms – they can be both beneficial allies aiding our health or formidable foes causing disease.
