EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait print showcases Aleksey Bakh, a prominent Soviet biochemist whose contributions revolutionized the field of biochemistry. Born in 1857, Bakh's life journey was intertwined with the turbulent history of Russia during the 19th and 20th centuries. Aleksey Nikolayevich Bakh began his career as a revolutionary, but eventually emigrated from Russia in 1885. However, he returned to his homeland following the Russian Revolution in 1917. In pursuit of scientific excellence, he established both the Physico-Chemical Institute and later the Biochemical Institute in Moscow. Bakh's research interests encompassed various aspects of biology and chemistry including photosynthesis, respiration, oxidation, and fermentation. His groundbreaking work paved new paths for understanding these fundamental processes within living organisms. In recognition of his immense contributions to science, Bakh became a member of the USSR Academy of Sciences in 1929. This prestigious honor solidified his status as one of the founding fathers of Soviet biochemistry. The photograph captures an elderly Aleksey Bakh in 1949; a wise man with a long white beard that exemplifies his years spent dedicated to scientific exploration. The image portrays him surrounded by laboratory equipment - symbols representing countless hours spent unraveling nature's mysteries. Through this print from RIA NOVOSTI/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, we are reminded not only of Aleksey Bakh's remarkable achievements but also how individuals like him can shape our understanding of life itself through their relentless pursuit for knowledge.
