EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of historical scales, taking us back to the 19th century. Published in 1880, these wood engravings offer a glimpse into the past and remind us of the significant role that balance and weight measurement played during this era. Arranged from top left to bottom right, we are presented with five distinct types of scales. The Spring balance, Decimal balance, Steelyard, Chemical balance, and Beam balance each possess their own unique design and purpose. These intricate engravings highlight the craftsmanship and attention to detail prevalent in that time period. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia as we reflect on how these ancient instruments were once used for various purposes such as trade, scientific experiments, or even everyday tasks. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our constant pursuit of precision. As we observe this etching-like illustration with its engraved lines meticulously capturing every detail, it becomes evident that these scales have become obsolete relics from an industrial revolution long gone by. However, their presence here reminds us of the rich history they represent – a reminder that progress is built upon foundations laid by those who came before us. ZU_09's skillful capture transports us back in time through this woodcut image date; allowing us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the significance behind these historical artifacts.
