EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning glass model of the jellyfish, Carmarina hastata, is a masterpiece created by Leopold and Rudolf Blaschka in the late nineteenth century and currently held at the Natural History Museum in London. The Blaschka brothers, renowned for their intricate and lifelike glass models of marine invertebrates, meticulously crafted this exquisite piece between 1857 and 1939. The Carmarina hastata, also known as a Geryonia or Trachymedusa, is a species of hydrozoan jellyfish belonging to the family Geryoniidae. This delicate and fragile creature is a member of the larger class of Cnidaria, which includes jellyfish, sea anemones, and corals. The jellyfish's bell-shaped body is adorned with a complex network of tentacles, each tipped with tiny stinging cells called nematocysts. The Blaschka's glass model captures the ethereal beauty of the Carmarina hastata with remarkable accuracy. The intricate details of its bell and tentacles are rendered in exquisite detail, showcasing the artists' exceptional skill and dedication to natural history. The model's translucent glass body allows light to filter through, creating an otherworldly glow that brings the jellyfish to life. This historical artifact is a testament to the Blaschka's unwavering commitment to preserving the natural world through art. Their glass models continue to inspire awe and fascination, serving as a reminder of the intricacies and complexities of the marine ecosystem. The Carmarina hastata model, with its delicate beauty and intricate details, is a must-see for anyone visiting the Natural History Museum in London.
