EDITORS COMMENTS
"This handcolored copperplate engraving, taken from Friedrich Bertuch's Bilderbuch fur Kinder (Picture Book for Children), published in Weimar in 1798, offers a fascinating glimpse into the microscopic world of crystallization. The image showcases four distinct types of crystals: Verdigris (1), Boric Acid (2), Common Salt (3), and Sal Ammoniac (4). Verdigris, a bright-green pigment formed on copper when it reacts with acetic acid and oxygen, is depicted in the top left corner. Its crystalline structure, with its intricate, interconnected formations, is a testament to the beauty and complexity of natural processes. Boric Acid (2), a white, crystalline solid, is located in the upper right corner. It was historically used as a preservative, an antiseptic, and a mild laxative. Its simple, cubic crystal structure is a common shape found in many inorganic compounds. Common Salt (3), also known as sodium chloride, is displayed in the lower left corner. This essential mineral for human life is crucial for maintaining the balance of fluids in the body. Its cubic crystal structure, which is responsible for its distinctive crunchy texture, is a fundamental building block of the mineral world. Sal Ammoniac (4), a white, crystalline solid, is located in the lower right corner. It is a source of ammonium chloride, which has been used historically as a food additive, a catalyst, and a component in the production of gunpowder. Its complex, rhombohedral crystal structure is a testament to the intricacy and diversity of the natural world." This enchanting illustration not only serves as a visual delight but also offers a historical perspective on the study of chemistry and the wonders of the microscopic world. The handcolored copperplate engraving technique, popular during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, adds an artistic touch to the scientific subject matter, making it an intriguing piece of both historical and scientific significance.
