EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Organic substances, amber (enclosing insect), asphaltum, lignite" showcases the beauty and diversity of natural minerals. The image captures the essence of organic substances found in nature, including amber enclosing an insect, asphaltum, and lignite. These solid materials occur naturally and hold immense value both scientifically and aesthetically. The photograph is a color lithograph created by an English School artist from the 20th century. It belongs to a private collection and was originally used as an illustration for Leonard J Spencer's book "The Worlds Minerals" published by W & R Chambers in 1911. The fine printing technique employed enhances the intricate details of these precious stones. In this composition, we witness the fascinating intersection between biology and geology as an insect becomes trapped within a translucent piece of amber over time. This unique occurrence highlights how organic matter can be preserved within mineral formations for millions of years. Additionally, alongside amber are other remarkable substances like asphaltum and lignite that contribute to our understanding of natural history. Each element has its own distinct characteristics that make it valuable not only as scientific specimens but also as gems or gemstones. Overall, this print serves as a visual testament to the wonders present in our world - from ancient fossils encapsulated in precious stones to rare geological formations that continue to captivate us with their beauty and significance.
