Below the table is the College Lantern, arranged by President Morton and for some time manufactured under his direct management. To the right and in the rear are seen the modification of Gassiott's 'Electric Star' and a Geissler tube of unusual dimensions... and behind the figure is the curtained window through which a porte-lumiére transmitted sunlight for his spectroscopic researches."
