EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of ingots from the 13th to 17th century, crafted by an unknown creator. These small copper ingot currencies, also known as croisettes of the HX type, offer a glimpse into Africa's rich historical heritage. The image captures their timeless beauty and reveals intriguing details about their condition. The five ingots on display exhibit stable oxidation with subtle signs of minor pitting. As you observe closely, mold form ridges become visible on the underside, providing valuable insights into the ancient metalworking techniques employed during this period. Housed within the esteemed National Museum of African Art, this artifact represents a fusion of artistry and scientific knowledge. Its presence in such an educational institution highlights its significance in understanding both chemistry and history. Through this photograph, we are transported back through time to witness the craftsmanship that went into creating these remarkable pieces. Each century represented - from the 13th to 17th - holds its own story waiting to be unraveled by historians and enthusiasts alike. As we admire this sculpture-like arrangement of ingots, let us appreciate not only their aesthetic appeal but also their role as tangible links to our past. The Smithsonian Institution proudly preserves these treasures for future generations to explore and learn from while honoring the anonymous artisans who brought them into existence centuries ago.
