EDITORS COMMENTS
This line engraving from 1873 showcases the innovative "Lightning Rod Umbrella" a remarkable invention of the 19th century. The image portrays two distinguished gentlemen, donning top hats and holding these extraordinary umbrellas, which are designed to protect against the powerful forces of nature. The artist's intricate detailing brings to life this ingenious creation that combines fashion with functionality. The umbrella itself is adorned with an elaborate lightning rod at its peak, serving as a conductor for electricity during thunderstorms. This groundbreaking concept aimed to provide safety and peace of mind in an era when lightning strikes were feared and often resulted in catastrophic consequences. The French origins of this print add an air of sophistication and elegance to the scene. It reflects both the artistic prowess prevalent during that period and France's reputation as a hub for innovation and creativity. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are transported back in time, marveling at how our ancestors sought solutions to harness natural elements like electricity. It serves as a reminder of humanity's ceaseless pursuit of progress through ingenuity and imagination. Displayed by The Granger Collection in New York, this print not only captures a momentous invention but also invites us to appreciate the intersection between artistry, science, and human curiosity throughout history.
