EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the essence of Alexandre Edmond Becquerel, a prominent French physicist of the 19th century. With his distinguished bald head and well-groomed beard, he exudes an air of wisdom and intellect. The image showcases his notable achievements as a scientist, with medals adorning his chest symbolizing recognition for his groundbreaking contributions. As the son of Antoine Cesar Becquerel and father to Henri Becquerel, who discovered radioactivity, Edmond Becquerel's scientific lineage is undeniable. His research on solar radiation and diamagnetism further solidified his reputation as a pioneer in the field. This wood engraving print not only immortalizes him but also pays tribute to his significant role in advancing our understanding of these phenomena. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this portrait, emphasizing its historical significance. It serves as a reminder of the remarkable individuals who dedicated their lives to unraveling the mysteries of science during that era.
