EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a piece of scientific history - a lacquered brass microscope belonging to the Darwin family, dating back to 1826-30. The intricately designed microscope, measuring 13.7x10.7x3.7 cm, is a Gould-type monocular microscope signed 'Cary, London' on the arm and comes in its original mahogany box complete with various accessories.
The microscope includes three lenses, a convex mirror, stage with an ivory disc painted black to reverse, condenser lens, Lieberkuhn reflector, light/dark-ground discs, live box, and more. A manuscript list of objects on three slides dated 1864 June 14th adds a personal touch to this scientific instrument.
Belonging to Leonard Darwin and bearing his monogram from 1864 makes this piece even more special as it provides insight into the life and interests of one of Charles Darwin's sons.
This print not only showcases the beauty and craftsmanship of this antique microscope but also serves as a reminder of the important role that instruments like these played in advancing scientific knowledge during the 19th century. It is truly a treasure trove for any history or science enthusiast.
