Title page of Experimenta Nova, ut vocant, Magdeburgica, de vacuo Spatio, (Amsterdam, 1672)

Title page of Experimenta Nova, ut vocant, Magdeburgica, de vacuo Spatio, (Amsterdam, 1672). New Magdeburgian Experiments, as they are called, relating to a Vacuum) by Otto von Guericke (1606-1686), German inventor, engineer and physicist, in which he published details of his invention of the air pump (1650), and his experiments on the power of air pressure. In the most famous of these, he used an air-pump to remove the air from between two large close-fitting copper hemispheres, known as Magdeburg hemispheres. The effect of the air pressure on the two hemispheres was such that two teams of 8 horses could not separate them. Once the air was let back into the enclosure, however, the hemispheres were parted easily

EDITORS COMMENTS
The title page of "Experimenta Nova, ut vocant, Magdeburgica, de vacuo Spatio" captures the essence of Otto von Guericke's groundbreaking work in the field of physics. Published in 1672, this book unveils his invention of the air pump and documents his extensive experiments on the power of air pressure. In this print, we see a glimpse into the world of scientific discovery during the seventeenth century. The image showcases two large copper hemispheres known as Magdeburg hemispheres, which were closely fitted together. Through his ingenious use of an air pump, von Guericke was able to create a vacuum between these hemispheres by removing all traces of air. The impact is evident as we witness two teams of eight horses struggling to separate these seemingly inseparable objects. This powerful demonstration highlights the immense force exerted by atmospheric pressure when it is absent from a confined space. Von Guericke's pioneering experiments revolutionized our understanding of pneumatic principles and laid the foundation for further advancements in science. His work not only showcased Germany's contribution to scientific innovation but also solidified him as one of history's most influential inventors and physicists. This remarkable print serves as a testament to von Guericke's ingenuity and dedication to unraveling nature's mysteries through meticulous experimentation. It stands as a timeless reminder that curiosity coupled with perseverance can unlock profound discoveries that shape our understanding of the world around us.
