EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable solar motor created by Aubrey Eneas of Boston around 1905. The image captures a pivotal moment in history, as it was taken during a demonstration at Edwin Cawston's ostrich farm in Pasadena, California. The centerpiece of this innovative invention is a massive reflector measuring an impressive 33 feet (10.05 meters) in diameter and lined with 1788 mirrors. These mirrors work harmoniously to focus sunlight onto a boiler, generating steam that powers a pump capable of raising an astounding 1400 gallons (6364.5 liters) of water per minute. The vibrant colors and intricate details depicted in this chromolithograph cigarette card from around 1910 truly bring the scene to life. It serves as a testament to the ingenuity and forward-thinking mindset prevalent during the early 20th century. This photograph not only highlights Eneas' groundbreaking creation but also symbolizes America's relentless pursuit of scientific advancements and technological breakthroughs during this era. The reflection captured on the surface of the water represents both energy and innovation merging together seamlessly. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are reminded of how far we have come in harnessing renewable sources for power generation while appreciating those individuals like Aubrey Eneas who paved the way for modern-day solar technology.
