EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1840s, where technological innovation was just beginning to shape our world. The image showcases Froments motor, a remarkable invention of its time, harnessed to a pair of millstones. This particular motor is an early example of harnessing electricity for power. The engraving captures the essence of this antique machine with precision and detail. It highlights the intricate diagram and structure of Gustave Froment's electrostatic generator, which served as the heart of this revolutionary contraption. The object itself stands as a testament to human ingenuity in harnessing natural forces for practical applications. Although we cannot see it in action, one can imagine the hum and vibration that would have emanated from this powerful device when set into motion. It represents a significant milestone in the history of physics and technology, paving the way for future advancements in electrical engineering. As we gaze upon this historical artifact frozen in time through Paul Obi's lens, we are reminded of how far we have come since those early days. This photograph serves as both a reminder and appreciation for those who paved the way for modern science and power generation.
