On 8 February 1813, Professor Steffens ignited the passion of his audience, inspiring them to fight for freedom and self-determination. A century later, in 1838, German artist Carl Heinrich Steffens captured the essence of innovation with his painting "Farben-Kugel oder Construction des," showcasing a complex sphere of colors. Meanwhile, in America, journalist Lincoln Steffens, born in 1866, donned a fancy white hat and dress, immortalized in a photograph by Pirie MacDonald. Steffens' unyielding commitment to truth and justice left an indelible mark on journalism, inspiring generations to come.
