EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Hemispheres of Magdebourg" an engraving created by the French School in the 19th century. The artwork, now part of a private collection, was originally featured in Albert-Levy's book "Cent Tableaux de Science Pittoresque" published by Hachette in 1883. The image depicts a scientific experiment known as the Hemispheres of Magdebourg, which was conducted by Otto von Guericke, a renowned German scientist. This groundbreaking experiment involved two large copper hemispheres that were sealed together to create a vacuum inside. As depicted in the engraving, scientists are shown struggling to separate these hemispheres due to atmospheric pressure. The significance of this experiment lies in its contribution to our understanding of air pressure and vacuums. It demonstrated how powerful atmospheric pressure can be and paved the way for further advancements in physics and engineering. In this digitally cleaned image from Look and Learn's collection, we get a glimpse into the world of science during the 19th century. The intricate details captured within this engraving allow us to appreciate both its artistic beauty and historical importance.
