EDITORS COMMENTS
Hans Jansen and his son Sacharias, c1870. Artist: H Sluyter This print showcases the remarkable duo of Hans Jansen and his son Sacharias in the 17th century. Renowned as a Middelburg spectacle maker, Sacharias Jansen is often credited by historians for inventing both the telescope and microscope during this era, with assistance from his father. The image portrays a scene within their workshop in Holland, where innovation thrived amidst an atmosphere of scientific curiosity. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of their work, highlighting their dedication to optics and pioneering advancements in science and technology. As we gaze upon this portrait, we witness not only a snapshot of history but also a testament to the power of family bonds. Hans Jansen's guidance undoubtedly played an instrumental role in shaping Sacharias' inventive mind. This print from 'Nederlands Geschiedenis en Volksleven in Schetsen' by J Van Lenner and J Ter Gouw offers us a glimpse into the lives of these brilliant minds who forever changed our understanding of the world around us. Let us celebrate these visionary men whose contributions continue to inspire generations after them. Their legacy serves as a reminder that even within humble workshops lie seeds of extraordinary discoveries.
