1. Title: "Metals and Iron Oxides: A Journey Through Time and Geology". This chromolithograph, titled "Metals," is an exquisite representation of various metals and iron oxides, as depicted in Dr. Adolph Kenngott's Mineralogy section from Gotthilf Heinrich von Schubert's Natural History publication in Munich, 1886. The illustration showcases a stunning collection of minerals, including stalactitic lepidocrocite, hematite, limonites, chalybite, bogore, pharmacosiderite, melanterite, pyrolusite, and psilomelane. The stalactitic lepidocrocite, with its elongated, icicle-like formations, is a mesmerizing example of secondary iron oxide minerals that form in humid environments. Hematite, known for its red-brown color and magnetic properties, is another prominent mineral in this illustration. Limonites, characterized by their yellow, brown, or red hues, are another group of iron oxides, showcased in various forms in this print. Chalybite, a green-gray iron carbonate mineral, and bogore, a brownish-red iron hydroxide mineral, are also represented in this chromolithograph. Pharmacosiderite, a rare manganese iron oxide mineral, adds an intriguing touch to the collection. Melanterite, a greenish-black manganese carbonate mineral, and pyrolusite, a black manganese oxide mineral, are also displayed. Lastly, the beautiful rhodonite, a manganese silicate mineral, adds a splash of color with its pinkish-red hue. This historical chromolithograph not only showcases the beauty of these minerals but also provides a glimpse into the rich history of mineralogy and geology. The intricate details and vibrant colors in this print make it a valuable addition to any collection, offering a window into the natural world and the scientific discoveries of the past.
