EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant milestone in the history of refrigeration. The image showcases the innovative ice making machine developed by Siebe & Harrisons, which employed the revolutionary technique of refrigeration using ether. Exhibited at the International Exhibition in London back in 1862, this marvel of engineering utilized air compression followed by its sudden expansion to freeze water and create ice. The copperplate engraving beautifully depicts the intricate details of this groundbreaking invention. Its preservation capabilities were nothing short of extraordinary, revolutionizing how food was stored and extending its shelf life like never before. This technological advancement brought about a new era in refreshment, as people could now enjoy chilled beverages even during scorching summers. The image evokes a sense of awe and wonder as we contemplate the impact that this machine had on society's relationship with food preservation. It serves as a reminder that progress is built upon such remarkable inventions that shape our daily lives. Universal Images Group (UIG) has masterfully preserved this historical moment through their print, allowing us to appreciate both the ingenuity behind Siebe & Harrisons' creation and how far we have come since then. As we gaze upon this photograph, let us reflect on how these early pioneers paved the way for modern-day refrigeration technology that continues to improve our lives today.
