EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Isotherms, South Africa and South East Australia" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of meteorology during that time. Created by an English School in the late 1800s, this colour lithograph was part of Bartholomews Physical Atlas, a significant contribution to scientific knowledge. The image showcases isotherms - lines connecting points with equal temperature - across South Africa and South East Australia. It serves as an illustration for Volume III of the Atlas of Meteorology, prepared by J G Bartholomew and A J Herbertson under The Royal Geographical Society in 1899. This set of maps provides valuable insights into global weather patterns at the end of the nineteenth century. As we explore this historical piece, it reminds us of how far meteorological science has come since then. From forecasting techniques to understanding climate change and atmospheric conditions, scientists have made tremendous progress over time. This artwork not only highlights their dedication but also emphasizes the importance of scientific methods in studying our planet's weather systems. With its warm colors representing different temperature ranges and intricate details depicting geographical features, this print transports us to a different era while reminding us that even centuries ago, people were fascinated by understanding Earth's climate dynamics.
