Micro-art photography at the beginning of the last century

nowadays, it is nothing new to connect the microscopic world under the microscope with art. There are many micro-beauty websites like small world, and artists use micron and nanometer processing technology to create.

however, if you go back to nearly 100 years ago, few people explored the beauty of microphotography. What we are going to introduce today is a pioneer of microscopic "art photography" at that time. His name is Carl Str ü we.

the history of taking pictures of objects in a microscope for scientific research is longer, and Carl Str ü we was one of the first people to look at microphotography from an artistic point of view, who began to record the beautiful side of the micro world in the 1920s. He is not a scientist, but he can also feel the collision between science and art in his photography.

another diatom Triceratium favus (1930)
