EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a remarkable technological marvel - the Five inch theodolite of 1866. The intricate diagram presents this mathematical instrument in all its glory, revealing its importance in surveying and engineering during that era. The theodolite itself stands tall on a sturdy tripod, exuding an air of precision and accuracy. Its detailed engravings highlight the craftsmanship involved in creating such a sophisticated device. This five-inch wonder was undoubtedly instrumental in mapping out landscapes, measuring angles, and aiding engineers with their calculations.
