A tastefully gilded miniature Wheellock Pistol,

OaL: 2.2 in/5.5 cm

Barrel Length: 1.3 in/3.4 cm

Calibre: 0.079 in/2 mm

The weight of this piece is listed as 14 grams, or half an ounce. As small as this weapon is, I believe this to be a typographical error. 4.9 oz/140 g is much more likely.

Germany, ca. 1580, housed at the Wallace Collection.

"Mini Planets"

In Thomas Blanchard’s “Mini Planets” oil-coated paint droplets swirl on colorful backgrounds. With band-like streaks, they truly do look like miniature planets rotating. (Image and video credit: T. Blanchard) Read the full article
