EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a Carl Zeiss Jena Concave Mirror Lens from the 1920s, specifically designed for large parabolic reflectors used in searchlights. The intricately crafted lens, produced by the renowned German optics manufacturer Carl Zeiss Jena in 1926, measures an impressive two meters in width. The lens is not to be confused with the company itself, but rather the individual component that played a crucial role in the functionality of these massive searchlights. During the 1920s, searchlights became a significant technological advancement, particularly in the fields of aviation and military applications. The large parabolic reflectors, equipped with these concave mirror lenses, were instrumental in directing the intense beam of light emitted by the searchlight. The curved mirror design ensured that the light was focused efficiently and effectively, allowing for maximum illumination and distance. The elegance and complexity of this Carl Zeiss Jena Concave Mirror Lens are evident in the photograph. The intricate design, with its precise curvature and meticulous craftsmanship, is a testament to the advanced optical technology of the time. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of optics and the role that Carl Zeiss Jena played in the development of searchlight technology during the 1920s.
