EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 47" from "Mineralogie: Recuille complet de Mineralogie," Volume 5, published in 1790 by François-Louis Swebach Desfontaines, showcases a captivating display of mineral specimens. This plate, one of many in the comprehensive mineralogy catalogue, highlights a colorful pyrite specimen, adorned with iron stibnite and crystals of unidentified rocks. The intricate interplay of minerals in this specimen is a testament to the rich diversity of the natural world. Pyrite, also known as fool's gold, is a sulfide mineral with a cubic crystal structure and a metallic luster. Its golden hue is a result of iron disulfide, which gives it a striking resemblance to gold. The iron stibnite crystals, on the other hand, add an additional layer of complexity to the specimen. Iron stibnite is a sulfide mineral characterized by its prismatic crystals and a grayish-black color. The presence of these crystals adds a unique contrast to the golden pyrite, making this specimen a true marvel for mineralogical observation. The painting-like illustration in Plate 47 offers a detailed and accurate representation of the specimen, allowing for close examination and study. This level of detail was essential for the scientific community during the late 18th century, as the cataloguing and classification of minerals was a burgeoning field. Desfontaines, a renowned French mineralogist and geologist, was a pioneer in the study of minerals and the development of mineralogical collections. His comprehensive "Mineralogie" catalogue, published between 1789 and 1815, remains a significant contribution to the field of mineralogy and geology. Plate 47 serves as a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the natural world, as well as the importance of careful observation and documentation in the pursuit of scientific knowledge.
