EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases the remarkable experience of Otto von Guericke, a renowned physicist from Germany. In this historic moment captured by an unknown artist in the 19th century, Otto de Guericke demonstrates the power of atmospheric air pressure using the hemispheres of Magdeburg. As depicted in the engraving, Otto is seen emptying the air from these hemispheres, creating such immense pressure that even a horse cannot detach them from each other. This experiment not only highlights his deep understanding of physics but also showcases his ingenuity and curiosity. Otto von Guericke's groundbreaking work on atmospheric pressure revolutionized our understanding of nature and paved the way for further scientific advancements. His experiments with air pressure laid a strong foundation for future discoveries in various fields. This photo print, part of a private collection at The Musee Des Sciences, captures both the historical significance and human fascination with knowledge and exploration. It serves as a reminder of how one individual's dedication to unraveling mysteries can shape our collective understanding. Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary moment where science meets artistry. Stefano Bianchetti has beautifully preserved this piece of history through his meticulous restoration work on this out-of-copyright photograph. Intriguingly juxtaposing physical elements like horses and livestock with abstract concepts like atmospheric pressure, this artwork invites us to delve into the wonders that lie beyond what meets the eye.
