EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Isobars and Isohyets, Australia and South East Australia" takes us back to the 19th century when meteorology was still in its early stages. Created by the English School, this colour litho artwork is a part of Bartholomews Physical Atlas, Volume III. The image showcases a set of maps that provide valuable insights into global weather patterns at the end of the 19th century. With isobars representing lines connecting areas with equal atmospheric pressure and isohyets indicating regions with similar annual rainfall levels, this illustration offers a comprehensive perspective on climate variations across Australia and South East Australia. As we delve into this historical piece, it becomes evident how far scientific methods have advanced since then. Meteorologists today rely on sophisticated technology for accurate weather forecasting. Nevertheless, this artwork reminds us of the foundations laid by pioneers like J G Bartholomew and A J Herbertson from The Royal Geographical Society. Beyond its scientific significance, this print also serves as a visual time capsule capturing an era when our understanding of Earth's climate was evolving rapidly. It invites contemplation about temperature changes over time – warming or cooling – and their impact on our planet. Through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can appreciate both the artistic beauty and historical importance encapsulated within this mesmerizing depiction of meteorological data from late 19th-century Australia.
