EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Edison's New Electric Lamp" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing one of Thomas Edison's groundbreaking inventions. The print, part of a private collection, captures the essence of technological advancement during that era. The image reveals intricate details of the lamp's design and components. From its brass base to copper ends, binding posts, resistance spools, and electric meter - every element plays a crucial role in illuminating our understanding of this revolutionary invention. The wire-covered spool and collection of current demonstrate Edison's mastery over electrical engineering. Noteworthy features include the decomposing jar with its copper strip and brass terminals, which highlight Edison's innovative approach to insulation. The platinum safety wire adds an extra layer of protection while magnets and armature contribute to the lamp's functionality. The engraving also showcases various materials used in construction such as vulcanized fiber for durability. This comprehensive depiction emphasizes both Edison’s ingenuity as an inventor and his meticulous attention to detail. As we admire this historical artifact through Bridgeman Images' lens, let us appreciate how it represents not only a significant scientific breakthrough but also serves as a testament to human progress in harnessing electricity for practical use.
