EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate print, created by Georg Wolfgang Knorr for his Deliciae Naturae Selectae, showcases a stunning array of copper, coppernickel, and malachite ores. The intricate engraving and vibrant hues bring out the unique beauty and richness of these precious minerals. Copper, a valuable metal since ancient times, is depicted in various forms, from pure metallic copper to oxidized copper ores. Malachite, a copper carbonate mineral, is displayed in its vivid green hues, with its distinctive banded patterns adding to its allure. Malachite was highly prized for its decorative value and was often used to create ornate boxes and vases. Coppernickel, also known as brass, is a copper-zinc alloy. In this print, we see the different shades of coppernickel, ranging from reddish-brown to golden-yellow. Coppernickel was widely used in various industries due to its excellent malleability and resistance to corrosion. The meticulous attention to detail in this print is evident in the way each ore is depicted, highlighting their unique characteristics. The use of hand-coloring adds an extra layer of depth and richness to the image, making it a true masterpiece of natural history illustration. This print is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world and the skill of the artist and engraver.
