EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print showcases the innovative mind of Robert Boyle, an eminent English chemist and physicist from the 17th century. The image depicts two key elements used by Boyle in his quest to discover a medium more subtle than air: a bladder-bellows and a feather. Boyle's groundbreaking experiments are documented in his renowned work, "A Continuation of New Experiments Physico-Mechanical Touching the Spring and Weight of the Air, and their Effect" published in 1669. This woodcut illustration is taken directly from that publication. The bladder-bellows depicted here played a crucial role in Boyle's exploration of vacuum phenomena. By manipulating this apparatus, he was able to create partial vacuums which allowed him to investigate various properties of gases and their behavior under different conditions. The presence of the feather adds another layer of intrigue to this image. It symbolizes Boyle's pursuit for a medium even more ethereal than air itself—a concept that would later be understood as the absence or near-absence of matter within a given space. Overall, this woodcut print not only captures an important moment in scientific history but also serves as a testament to Robert Boyle's ingenuity and relentless curiosity about the natural world.
