EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite glass model of Chrysaora isosceles, or the Blue Butterfly Jellyfish, is a masterpiece created by the renowned father-and-son team of Leopold (1822-1895) and Rudolf Blaschka (1857-1939) in the late nineteenth century. Housed at the Natural History Museum in London, this intricately crafted work of art showcases the beauty and delicate complexity of this particular species of jellyfish, which belongs to the class Cnidaria, order Semaeostomeae, and family Feliidae. The Blaschka jellyfish model is a testament to the duo's unparalleled skill in creating lifelike glass models of various marine organisms. Leopold and Rudolf Blaschka were pioneers in their field, using a combination of glass, color, and fine detail to create models that were not only visually stunning but also educational. The Blue Butterfly Jellyfish, with its distinctive bell-shaped body and trailing tentacles, is a common sight in the Atlantic Ocean. However, its fragile nature makes it a challenging subject for study and preservation. The Blaschka model provides a unique opportunity for close examination and appreciation of this beautiful and elusive creature. This Victorian-era model is a reminder of the rich history of scientific exploration and the importance of preserving natural wonders for future generations. The intricate details of the model, from the undulating tentacles to the delicate ridges on the jellyfish's bell, are a testament to the Blaschka's unwavering dedication to their craft. The model also serves as a reminder of the beauty and diversity of the natural world, and the importance of preserving it for future generations to marvel at and learn from.
