EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, hailing from the esteemed Mineralogy section of Gotthilf Heinrich von Schubert's Natural History, published by Schreiber in Munich in 1886, showcases a stunning array of mineral varieties. The image includes several noteworthy specimens, such as sulphur, mellite, graphite, amber with insects, amber in Carpathian stone, anthracite, English coal, slate coal, needle coal, earthy brown coal, and lignite. Sulphur, depicted in its bright yellow crystalline form, is a non-metallic element that often forms in volcanic or hot spring environments. Mellite, a rare sulfate mineral, is shown in its elegant, prismatic crystals. Graphite, a form of carbon, is represented by its characteristic black, hexagonal crystals. Amber, a fossilized tree resin, is showcased with intricately preserved insects, offering a glimpse into the ancient world. Amber in Carpathian stone refers to amber inclusions found in limestone, while the various types of coal – anthracite, English coal, slate coal, needle coal, earthy brown coal, and lignite – illustrate the diverse stages in the coalification process. This exquisite chromolithograph, created by Dr. Adolph Kenngott, not only highlights the beauty and diversity of minerals but also serves as a testament to the scientific advancements of the late 19th century. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the mineral world to life, inviting us to explore the wonders of the natural world and the rich history of geology.
