EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history, the Mariners compass from the 18th century. This European instrument, now part of a prestigious collection, represents an essential tool in geography and navigation during that era. The monochrome artwork beautifully captures the intricate details of this technological marvel. The craftsmanship involved in creating such a device is evident through its delicate engravings and precise engineering. It serves as a testament to the scientific advancements made in maritime exploration. Published in 1750 as part of "The Philosophical Transactions" a renowned academic journal by the Royal Society of London, this diagram was featured in Volume 10 and later abridged for Volume 46. Its inclusion signifies its significance within the field of physics and research at that time. Gowin Knight's creation gained recognition not only among English mariners but also among prominent figures like John Smeaton, further solidifying its importance within navigational practices. Todd-White Art Photography has masterfully captured this historical artifact, allowing us to appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and scientific value. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to an era where technology played an integral role in shaping our understanding of the world around us.
