Abstract

A la fin du XIXe siècle, Léopold et Rudolf Blaschka, verriers virtuoses, produisent à l'attention des universitaires aussi bien que des amateurs éclairés un large assortiment de modèles en verre d'animaux marins, saisissants par leur exactitude scientifique, leur apparence de vie et leur beauté. De somptueux spécimens croisent ici leurs homologues des planches naturalistes d'Ernst Haeckel qui les ont inspirés, pour une fascinante rencontre entre art et science.

Abstract

Si les collections de sciences naturelles d'un Muséum sont a priori essentiellement constituées de spécimens d'animaux préservés, elles renferment parfois d'autres objets patrimoniaux remarquables, d'une grande valeur scientifique, historique et artistique.La collection "Blaschka" de l'Aquarium-Muséum de l'Université de Liège en fait partie. Il s'agit de modèles d'animaux invertébrés marins en verre créés à la fin du XIXe siècle par les maîtres-verriers Léopold et Rudolf Blaschka et acquis en 1886 par le fondateur de l'Institut zoologique, Edouard Van Beneden. Matériel didactique hier, les Blaschka sont devenus aujourd'hui de véritables oeuvres d'art. Un patrimoine irremplaçable et unique en Belgique.Plus qu'un simple catalogue de la collection, l'ouvrage retrace son histoire et celle de ses créateurs, évoque les résultats de leurs analyses et traitements de conservation, et fait revivre ces éclatants joyaux de verre sous le regard de photographies artistiques.

Abstract

";The author makes an eloquent plea for marine biodiversity conservation.";-Library Journal";Harvell seems to channel the devotion that motivated the Blaschkas.";-The Guardian Winner of the 2016 National Outdoor Book Award, Environment Category It started with a glass octopus. Dusty, broken, and all but forgotten, it caught Drew Harvell's eye. Fashioned in intricate detail by the father-son glassmaking team of Leopold and Rudolf Blaschka, the octopus belonged to a menagerie of unusual marine creatures that had been packed away for decades in a storage unit. More than 150 years earlier, the Blaschkas had been captivated by marine invertebrates and spun their likenesses into glass, documenting the life of oceans untouched by climate change and human impacts. Inspired by the Blaschkas' uncanny replicas, Harvell set out in search of their living counterparts. In A Sea of Glass, she recounts this journey of a lifetime, taking readers along as she dives beneath the ocean's surface to a rarely seen world, revealing the surprising and unusual biology of some of the most ancient animals on the tree of life. On the way, we glimpse a century of change in our ocean ecosystems and learn which of the living matches for the Blaschkas' creations are, indeed, as fragile as glass. Drew Harvell and the Blaschka menagerie are the subjects of the documentary Fragile Legacy, which won the Best Short Film award at the 2015 Blue Ocean Film Festival & Conservation Summit.
