EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Aubrey Eneass of Boston showcasing his groundbreaking solar motor at Edwin Cawston's ostrich farm in Pasadena, California. The focal point of the image is a colossal reflector measuring 33 feet (10.05 meters) in diameter, adorned with an impressive array of 1,788 mirrors. This ingenious design harnesses the power of the sun to generate steam within a boiler, which subsequently powers a pump capable of raising an astounding 1,400 gallons (6,364.5 liters) of water per minute. The scene depicted on this Liebig trade card from around 1910 showcases the remarkable potential and versatility offered by solar energy. With precision and ingenuity, Eneass has created a system that efficiently converts sunlight into usable power without relying on traditional fuel sources. It is fascinating to witness this demonstration unfold against the backdrop of Cawston's ostrich farm – an unexpected juxtaposition between cutting-edge technology and nature's wonders. The chromolithograph technique employed in this print adds vibrancy and depth to every detail captured within its frame. As we admire this historic moment frozen in time, it is important to note that this caption does not mention any commercial use associated with Aubrey Eneass' invention or company; instead focusing solely on highlighting the technological marvels showcased in this photograph.
