Featured on PDR in the collection Optics Illustrations from the Physics Textbooks of Amédée Guillemin (1868/1882)

Exploring various aspects of the science of optics, these illustrations were all featured in the French science writer Amédée Guillemin’s popular textbook Les phénomènes de la physique (1868) and later reprinted in his five-volume magnum opus, Le monde physique (1882) (of which you can see a condensed 1877 English version here).
