EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in scientific history, showcasing the experience conducted by German scientist Otto von Guericke in 1654. In the presence of Prince Auerberg, von Guericke demonstrates his groundbreaking invention, the pneumatic vacuum, which was used to calculate atmospheric pressure. The image is taken from "Ottonis de Guericke: Experimenta Nova Magdeburgica de vacuo spatio" a renowned work by Otto von Guericke himself. The plate showcases an engraving created by an unknown artist from the 17th century and is now part of a private collection. In this scene frozen in time, we witness the fusion of physical exploration and scientific knowledge. Von Guericke's experiment revolutionized our understanding of atmospheric pressure and laid the foundation for future advancements in physics. The intricate details captured within this print allow us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic craftsmanship behind it. Giancarlo Costa has skillfully preserved this piece through his photography while ensuring that its copyright status remains intact. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, let us reflect on how far we have come since that pivotal moment when Otto von Guericke pushed boundaries and expanded our understanding of the natural world.
