EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the essence of Dimitri Ivanovich Mendeleiev, a renowned chemist who revolutionized the field of science. Taken between 1880-82 by Andrei Osipovich Karelin, this albumen print showcases Mendeleiev's intellectual prowess and unwavering dedication to his craft. Mendeleiev's piercing gaze reflects his deep contemplation and profound understanding of chemistry.
