1871 · Part-Assembled Mill · Werk 494 von 1.871

A small assembled portion of the mill of the Analytical Engine on a wooden base, a handful of brass gear columns each a stack of toothed wheels one above the other, a crank at the side, steel shafts in bronze frames, a small printing mechanism beside the columns, the metal warm against the grey, the model standing on a plain grey plinth before a flat grey background, even flat light from directly in front.
