EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph from 1886 showcases a geological cross-section through the Earth's crust, providing a fascinating glimpse into our planet's history. The print, part of Dr. Fr. Rolles' Geology and Paleontology section in Gotthilf Heinrich von Schubert's Natural History, is a testament to the meticulous scientific research conducted during that era. The image depicts a table-like structure with various rock layers meticulously illustrated in vibrant colors. Each layer represents different periods of geological time, revealing the complex history of our planet over millions of years. This visual representation allows us to understand how Earth has evolved and transformed over time. Dradolph Kenngott's expertise in mineralogy shines through this artwork as he skillfully captures the intricate details and textures found within each rock layer. His attention to detail brings these ancient formations to life on paper. As we gaze upon this historical piece, we are reminded of the immense power and beauty hidden beneath our feet. It serves as a reminder that while we may only see the surface, there is an entire world waiting to be discovered below. This chromolithograph not only serves as an educational tool but also stands as a testament to human curiosity and exploration throughout history. Its presence in Mary Evans Prints Online ensures that future generations can appreciate and learn from this remarkable work for years to come.
