A large table bullseye A large black microscope stage In a glazed tabletop display cabinet and with the original French Polished mahogany cabinet The Watson-Van Heurck microscope is named after its two inventors, William Watson and Jean-Baptiste van Heurck the Belgian Diatomist. It was developed in the late 19th century and was considered to be one of the most advanced microscopes of its time. William Watson was a British microscope maker who began working on the design of a high-quality microscope in the 1870s. He was motivated by a desire to improve the quality of microscopes used for scientific research and medical diagnosis. He worked on several designs before settling on the final one in collaboration with Jean-Baptiste van Heurck. The Watson-Heurck microscope was designed to improve upon the limitations of existing microscopes. The optics had a good range of magnification and resolution, allowing for more detailed observations of specimens. It also had a more stable base, reducing vibrations and improving the clarity of the image. One of the key features of the Watson-Heurck microscope was its use of a sub-stage condenser. This allowed for more even lighting of the specimen and reduced the distortion caused by uneven illumination. The Watson-Heurck microscope was widely used in scientific research and medical diagnosis throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It was particularly popular for studying diatoms, single-celled organisms with intricate, glass-like shells that are difficult to observe with standard microscopes. The Van Heurck microscope was available in various models, but this, the 'Exhibition' stand, was the most expensive and was sold only as a special order microscope. Due to the cost of this microscope when new very few are found today. Overall, the Watson-Heurck microscope was a significant advancement in the field of microscopy and played an important role in scientific research and medical diagnosis during its time.

Curtis "Curt" Dunnavan (1926-2022) was a passionate world traveler and avid collector. It was through his travels that he was inspired to begin a lifelong relationship with the Minneapolis Institute of Art (Mia), becoming a major sponsor of the institute and facilitating the growth of their Asian art department, which is now one of the best in the country. His generous donations to Mia allowed them to establish a fund for the Deputy Director and Chief Operating Officer, one of the few endowed positions of this type in the museum field. He additionally served as a trustee of the institute, advocating for its operational growth. In its turn, the museum established a gallery named in his honor in recognition for his endowment fund and numerous contributions to their collection. The selections here showcase his talent and breadth of collecting, ranging from ancient statues to 19th-century woodblock prints. His appreciation for art persisted throughout his life and we are honored to offer items from his collection in this auction.Height: 12 in x diameter: 9 1/2 in.Condition: Please contact us for a detailed condition report.
