Graphic representation of the periodic table of chemical elements organized in a symmetrical series table with bridge elements. This table was originated by German chemist Victor von Richter (1841-1891) circa 1889 and classified by chemist Edward G. Mazurs as Type IC2-2 in his seminal work Types of Graphic Representation of the Periodic System of Chemical Elements (1957). In this design, the elements of short periods, i.e. the so-called "bridge elements," are placed midway between the subgroups "a" and "b." This illustration appears as Figure 26 on page 107 of Mazurs' 1957 publication.
