Ten images of water droplets, page, photomechanical print, number: '2 3 1 4 5, 6 7 8 9 10', c. 1891 - in or before 1896, paper, autotype, height 226 mm x width 323 mm, Print on folding page, opposite page 272., water (one of the four elements), A large sheet with a faded cream background displays a grid of rectangular framed photographic panels showing liquid surfaces and drops; the top row features vertical panels with droplets falling from a horizontal boundary and a central tall panel with a slender vertical column of liquid and a series of suspended and falling drops, the upper panels framed by thin dark borders; the lower row contains a mix of vertical and horizontal panels including images of turbulent liquid beneath a surface, a rectangular frame showing swirling flow patterns, and a circular vorticity pattern in a square panel; overall the images are grayscale with varied tones from light gray to dark and the sheet shows subtle vertical discoloration where it folds.
