EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning glass model of Amoeba proteus and other amoebae, created by the renowned father-and-son team Leopold (1822-1895) and Rudolf Blaschka (1857-1939) in the late 19th century, is held at the Natural History Museum in London. The intricately crafted display showcases the fragile, eukaryotic organisms in a mesmerizing way, highlighting their unique shapes and movements. Amoeba proteus, a member of the Amoebozoa phylum and the Amoebidae family, is a unicellular organism commonly found in damp environments. Its characteristic form, Chaos diffluens, is characterized by the presence of multiple pseudopodia, which it uses to move and feed. This model is an excellent representation of the Lissamphibia, a group of amphibians that includes salamanders, salamandroidea, and urodela. Although Amoeba proteus is not an amphibian, it shares some similarities with these animals as they are both eukaryotes, meaning their cells contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. The Blaschka's meticulous attention to detail and their innovative use of glass to create lifelike models of various organisms, including this one, revolutionized the way scientific specimens were displayed and studied during the Victorian era. This studio shot offers a glimpse into the rich history of the Natural History Museum and the fascinating world of protists, including the enigmatic Amoeba proteus.
