EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the first magnetoelectric motor ever built by Hippolyte Pixii, a French inventor, in 1832. The image, taken around 1890, captures the essence of innovation and technological advancement that characterized the 19th century. The concept behind this motor stems from Michael Faraday's groundbreaking demonstration in 1831 that magnetism can produce an electric current. Pixii took this concept and turned it into reality with his invention. This marked a significant milestone in the fields of electricity, magnetism, and science as a whole. The engraving beautifully depicts the intricate details of Pixii's creation. It highlights the electromagnetism at play within the motor while showcasing its elegant design. The monochrome aesthetic adds to its timeless appeal. This photograph is not just a mere representation of an object; it symbolizes human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of knowledge. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, individuals like Hippolyte Pixii were pushing boundaries to harness energy through innovative means. As we admire this historical artifact captured by R Wormell for "Electricity in the Service of Man" let us appreciate how far we have come since then. This print stands as a testament to humanity's ability to transform concepts into tangible inventions that shape our world today.
