EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 6 from Mineralogie (Mine de Fer en grains), a captivating study of iron crystals from the comprehensive work "Recuille complet de Mineralogie" (1790) by F.L. Swebach Desfontaines, offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricacies of mineralogy. The pristine white background emphasizes the purity and beauty of the iron crystals, each one displaying unique facets that reflect the light in a stunning display of geometric patterns. Desfontaines, a renowned French mineralogist, meticulously observed and documented these mineral specimens in his studio, capturing their essence through precise illustrations. This plate, featuring iron crystals, is a testament to his dedication and passion for the geological sciences. The crystal formations in this image showcase the complex and intricate nature of minerals, inviting the viewer to explore the wonders of the natural world. The one-of-a-kind observation recorded in this plate serves as an invaluable resource for researchers and collectors alike, offering a glimpse into the past and the rich history of mineralogy. Published in volume 5 of "Mineralogie," this plate, created around 1769, is a prime example of the exquisite detail and accuracy that characterized Desfontaines' work. The illustration, a painting rather than a photograph, showcases the artistry and skill of the mineralogist, who masterfully captured the essence of these iron crystals for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
