EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored lithograph, titled "Micraster cor-testudinarium, Trigonia alaeformis, Hippurites cornu vaccinum, and Mosasaurus tooth," is an exquisite illustration from Dr. F.A. Schmidts Petrefactenbuch, published in Stuttgart, Germany, in 1855 by Verlag von Krais & Hoffmann. Dr. Schmidts Book of Petrification was a groundbreaking publication that introduced both the specialist and general reader to the fascinating world of fossils and palaeontology. The illustration showcases several extinct marine organisms, each displayed in stunning detail. At the center, the Micraster cor-testudinarium, a type of bivalve mollusk, is depicted with its intricately patterned shell. To its left, the Trigonia alaeformis, another bivalve, is illustrated with its distinctive fan-shaped shell. The Hippurites cornu vaccinum, a type of ammonite, is shown above the bivalves, its spiral shell adorned with intricate ridges and bulbs. The most striking feature of this illustration, however, is the Mosasaurus tooth, a large, conical tooth from a now-extinct marine reptile. The tooth is depicted with remarkable accuracy, showcasing its serrated edges and robust root. This lithograph is not only a testament to the scientific knowledge of the time but also a beautiful work of art. The intricate handcoloring adds depth and vibrancy to the illustration, making it a true treasure for anyone interested in the history of palaeontology. Dr. Schmidts Petrefactenbuch was a pioneering work in the field of palaeontology, and this illustration is a prime example of the meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy that defined the publication. Today, it remains an important historical artifact, shedding light on the fascinating world of extinct organisms and the early days of palaeontology.
