Sopwith Model VII: Surface denudation of veins
This model shows the influence of surface denudation and faulting on otherwise flat, horizontal strata. The discontinuity between the beds as viewed at the surface can be seen. Thomas Sopwith (1803 - 1879) was an eminent geologist and civil engineer who pioneered methods of representing geological features. This set of wooden models were designed to represent geological situations with faults, folds, inclines and strata that were particularly relevant to the mining industry

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a Sopwith Model VII, a wooden geological model created by the renowned 19th century geologist and civil engineer, Thomas Sopwith (1803-1879). The intricately carved model illustrates the surface denudation and faulting that can occur in otherwise flat, horizontal strata. The discontinuity between the beds, or layers, is clearly visible in this close-up view. Sopwith's models were instrumental in representing geological features relevant to the mining industry, including faults, folds, and inclines. This particular model highlights the erosional processes that shape the earth's surface, revealing the intricate details of a mineral vein as it winds through the stratified rock. The smooth, curved surfaces and meticulous stratification demonstrate Sopwith's mastery of the craft, providing an educational and historical glimpse into the world of geology and geomorphology. This studio shot offers a detailed view of the model, allowing us to appreciate the artistry and scientific accuracy that went into its creation.
