EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures an Analematic sundial designed for a latitude of 51 degrees, dating back to around 1697. Crafted from copper and steel by the skilled hands of Thomas Tuttell, this intricate object serves as both a practical tool and a work of art.
The shadow of the gnomon projected onto the dial allows for precise timekeeping based on the position of the sun in the sky. The delicate engravings and inscriptions add to its beauty and functionality, making it a true masterpiece of craftsmanship.
Displayed at the National Maritime Museum in London, UK, this piece is a testament to human ingenuity and our fascination with astronomy. It represents not only a tool for measuring time but also a connection to our place in the universe.
As we gaze upon this relic from centuries past, we are reminded of the timeless nature of celestial navigation and our quest to understand the movements of heavenly bodies. The combination of copper and steel creates a striking visual contrast that highlights both form and function.
In capturing this image, Bridgeman Images has preserved a piece of history that continues to inspire wonder and admiration today.
