EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph from 1903 showcases the mesmerizing world of fluorescence within vacuum tubes. The image captures a variety of substances, each emitting their own vibrant and ethereal glow when exposed to electricity. These cathode ray tubes, also known as Geissler tubes, were at the forefront of scientific exploration in the early 20th century. The composition presents an array of different tube shapes, highlighting the diverse forms that these experiments took. From delicate spirals to intricate loops and curves, each tube holds its own unique combination of substances that produce distinct colors when excited by radiation. The vivid hues emanating from these tubes create a visually stunning display against a dark background. The concept behind this print is rooted in the wonders of physics and light manipulation through electrical currents. It serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and understanding in the realm of science. Preserved by Oxford Science Archive, this historical artifact offers us a glimpse into an era where experimentation with fluorescent materials was still relatively new and mysterious. Although created by an unknown artist or scientist, this print collector's item continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and scientific significance.
