Discover the brilliance of color-corrected vision with the groundbreaking invention of John Dollond, the 18th-century English optician. Known as the "Father of Achromatism," Dollond's achromatic lens revolutionized the world of optics, providing unparalleled clarity and precision. From Thomas Harris's optician shop in London to the Royal Family's bespoke eyewear, Dollond's innovations set the standard for optical excellence. Fast forward to the late 19th century, and Lancaster & Sons showcased the power of Dollond's legacy with their bellows cameras, capturing vibrant, true-to-life images. Today, the Guggenheim Museum in New York City preserves the rich history of this optical pioneer through John Dollond's engraved portrait and his eldest son Peter Dollond's likeness. Experience the world through the lens of history with a modern-day pair glasses, offering the same color correction and sharpness that once captivated the Royal Family and the world's leading photographers. Step into the light of progress, just like the street lamp on the left bank of Paris, and embrace the beauty vision.
