EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases early transformers from the 19th century, providing a glimpse into the groundbreaking work of renowned scientists Michael Faraday and Masson and Ritchie. On the left, we see Faraday's first model from 1831, which consisted of an iron ring wound with two separate coils of wire. This innovative design laid the foundation for modern transformer technology.
On the right side of the engraving, we are introduced to Masson and Ritchie's forerunner to the Ruhmkorff coil from 1842. This transformer featured a core of iron rods forming an 'open magnetic circuit', demonstrating further advancements in electrical engineering during this era.
The intricate details captured in this illustration highlight the complexity and precision involved in creating these early transformers. The interplay between physics, magnetism, and wire coils is evident in every line and curve depicted on paper.
As we marvel at this historical image, we are reminded of how far technology has come since these early experiments. The legacy of Faraday and his contemporaries lives on through their contributions to science and innovation in transforming our world as we know it today.
