Model of an Optical Telegraph, Model of an optical telegraph on a floor board, incomplete. It consists of a propped mast with a short gallows on top. Sports are provided between two of the four braces to climb the mast. Two wooden wings are moved halfway up the mast with hoists through discs in the struts of the gallows, two other signals that are currently missing, probably balls, are hoisted up and down with hoists over disks in the gallows. The wings are mounted on a metal ring that can rotate freely around the mast: with a rod the ring can rotate with wings so that they end up in a different communication line. Traces of a missing part, possibly the flagpole, can be seen at the top of the gallows. 1:45 scale (scale on model)., anonymous, Netherlands, c. 1798 - c. 1803, wood (plant material), brass (alloy), ivory, rope, model: h 46 cm × w 16 cm × d 12.3 cm packaging capsule: h 60 cm × w 30 cm × d 25 cm.
